Pasting an instrument moves the instrument from the source zone to the paste
(or destination) zone. The paste operation is permissible only if the instrument is
from a different zone. The user is prompted to indicate if the default security
settings for the target zone should be propagated to the new zone member. In
addition, the user can choose to cancel the operation entirely.

placed in the Unassigned Instruments container. The user is prompted to indicate
if the default security settings for the site (represented by the sites default
instrument) should be propagated to all instruments being moved. A NO answer
makes the individual instruments retain their specific security settings. In
addition, the user can choose to cancel the operation entirely.
