Ok, I've just committed this stuff. But you need to enable the IBViewPboardType 
previewer uncommenting:
  return NO;
at the beginning of -displayData:ofType: in the implementation of the 
IBViewPboardViewer that is in 
ContentViewers/PasteboardViewer/PasteboardViewer.m.
But you can reproduce the problem, without using GWorkspace, pasting the object 
in the same Gorm window where you copied the object from.

Ciao,
