So you're saying stamps remain invisible in yanked text? If so, I think
that's a bug because a common use case is probably copying a message
from a chat buffer and yanking it at the prompt. But if the yanked text
includes an invisible stamp, users may find themselves sending unwanted
information (like duplicate stamps). Unfortunately, my cursory attempt
at reproducing this has proven unsuccessful. Can you please open a bug
report for this with recipe from -Q? TIA.

I'm unable to reproduce this error. Seems to work on my machine.
