Yeah, I hear that. That's why I suggested (on the other bug thread) allowing
users to configure which default paste behavior they want, and to add a "paste
special" option that would allow selecting each individual attribute to retain
and which to override. Designing for flexibility rather than having the
software second guess the user, or worse, impose some presumed use case on the
user, seems like a better option to me.
