1st Option 

 Right click on the window menu title --> Edit --> Paste

2nd Option

 - Double click the start.sh script (this is the script behind the boot2docker linkage)
 - Right click on the window menu title --> Options --> mark check box QuickEdit-Mode
 - You will then be able to paste text via right click

  3. Copy text and paste it by right click in Docker console

It turns out that for me, doing so in default did not do the trick. I had to go to Menu > Properties > set Quick Edit Mode ON.

Then, I was able to select text with mouse, to copy hitting "Enter" and to Paste with a right-click button on my mouse.

Pretty obvious things, but if you don't have those, it can be very annoying.
