I did not default it to enabled. It's simple enough to turn it on.
I think Padraig is talking about readline command sequences, not shell
commands. That's the real point of this patch. You can select text in
a way to avoid executing a shell command on paste, but without this mode
you can't avoid, for instance, a pasted TAB invoking word completion.
