Duplicate rows created on drag copy/paste on grid view

Issue/Introduction

On a Grid view (custom object or stock e.g. Risks / Tasks) - when you use the plus symbol (+) to create 2 or more blank rows then you use shift-click to select all required fields from the preceding row and use the drag copy/paste to copy the data from that row into the 2 (or more) blank rows.
The data is copied into the blank rows but multiple additional duplicate rows are also created.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 

1. Enable auto-numbering for the ID of 'Risk' object
2. Go to 'Risks' list page and create an instance of Risk
3. Using the Plus symbol (+), create 2 blank rows
4. Use the shift-click to select all required fields from the preceding row (instance created in step 2) and use the drag copy/paste to copy the data from that row into the 2 blank rows. (Dragged the bottom right corner of the   
   selected cells up into the above 2 rows).

Expected Results:

Data will be copied into the two rows only

Actual Results:

Data gets copied into nineteen rows instead of only two

Environment

Resolution

Engineering has reviewed and determined that this is not a defect.

For inline create, we do not support bulk inserts in the grid - you can only create one record at a time.  

 

Additional Information

Workaround: 

Create Risk instance, one at a time
