It would appear so.

>From the Changelog, I see that I created two functions comint-insert-input,
comint-mouse-insert-input based on an earlier one (comint-insert-clicked-input)
and removed comint-copy-old-input (2004-06-23).

On 2004-10-10, Stefan Monnier deleted comint-mouse-insert-input and made
comint-insert-input work for mouse bindings. I don't know why. I see that
the description that I wrote for comint-insert-input and its binding, C-c RET,
is still present in the manual.
