Is there an existing issue for this?

Current behaviour

if i copy something including extended pistons/sticky pistons or chests the pasting behaves really inconsistently. follow up to an older bug report by me.

case 1: extended pistons: if placed via ;move ;stack ;paste or the paste item extended pistons break. (my guess is that one part of the piston gets placed, realises it has no other part and breaks before the other part of the piston can get placed.) if placed by paste -m air they are placed in the retracted state and ten they immediately extend and don't break. (might be because i already highlighted this bug a while back and it got fixed but only partially. in older versions even ,paste -m air would break them)

now its going to get confusing. case 2: chests: this holds true and equal for chests, trapped chests and copper chests. single chests dont have any problems they appear with all items inside. if you however place another single chests with the ;paste tool or command so that they connect they will form a double chest. though not correctly. if you click on the double chest they will not show any items. if you break the parts of the chest the items in the single chests will still drop on the floor as if they are inside of that part of the double chest.

if you click on the part that was the first placed chest the chest animation will play and the empty double chest menu will open. if you click on the place of the second placed chest chest the empty menu will show but the chest animation wont play (maybe that could help debugging) holds true for all methods of placing.

if you copy and paste that bugged double chest it will place two unconnected single chests. one (the one that would be the first paced) will have the items of both single chests inside and the other will only have its own items. so the items in the second chest are duped into the first chest.

if you hand place a double chest and then copy paste them via ;move ;stack ;paste or the paste tool they will completely disappear. if you paste them using ;paste -m air the chest will place correctly but the items inside will be completely gone.

barrels and shulkers behave completely without bugs.

Expected behaviour

the pistons can be fixed by just pasting them first in a retracted state and then placing the rest of the clipboard around them.

for the chests i have no idea what causing it but they should be have like that i think.

i use the vanilla /structure save and structure load command for chests but that really tedious. maybe it could be possible to make an option that will use the /structure command backend. that should also be faster that the current system. that would only work for pasting, stacking, moving and 90° rotations. and it would make also include air in the clipboard. maybe a separate mode (like normal and performance mode) could be added tat would utilise structures. that would probably only be beneficial for redstone contraption.
