Not sufficient. Consider
"foo" bar "baz"
that then would result in
foo" bar "baz
Even worse with
"foo" "bar" "baz"
to become
foo" "bar" "baz

Remember that this is about clipboard content, so why not just select and copy
123 instead of "123"?

With which you get a dialog where you can tweak things, no hidden automatic
processing. This dialog btw is also presented when pasting clipboard content
that consists of more than one line.
