I do so myself a lot because Mozilla has no external editor support and cannot paste more than 4000 bytes from most other applications on Linux.
I just pasted http://de.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Ludwig_Tieck&action=edit from Emacs (4066 chars) and adding 1000 chars were not a problem.
Yes, it works with emacs and a few other apps which use different clipboard handling code. However, even then there are problems with some special chars. See http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56219 for the sordid details.
