At the risk of stating the obvious... if you don't want to paste to the command line, paste to something else.  :-)  For example, copy the entire scrollback buffer in window 1 (hint, vi-like movement commands work like G and gg) run cat in window 2, paste, ctrl-c to terminate cat.  Now window 2 has those contents in its scrollback buffer.
