Spreadsheet hangs if I copy and paste formula when full column is selected

How to reproduce:
1) Add, say, 1000 rows of data in column A
2) Add to cell B1 a formula to manipulate cell nearby, say =A1 + 1
3) Copy formula into clipboard
4) Select full column B by clicking on the header
5) Paste formula by pressing control-v
6) Spreadsheet hangs

I would expect either a timeout for processing (like, computation aborted after 10 seconds) or formula being pasted only for rows that actually contain any data (first 1000 rows) instead spreadsheet hangs with using 100% of one of cores.
