Issue:  Pasting text into the Feedback comments area from word processers such as Microsoft word causes the screen to freeze and/or only allows a minimal amount of text to be entered ( the limit should be 5000 characters). This is due to extra formatting being pasted into the comments section making it un-editable.

Workaround: Text should be pasted from plain text editors such as Notepad or Textedit
