Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Use Firefox
2. Go to https://formidable.com/open-source/react-live/
3. Click on one of the of the demos to edit the code.
4. Press CTRL+A to select all
5. Press CTRL+V to paste the code you want
6. You get SyntaxError and code doesn't get pasted

Expected behaviour: Paste should work properly.

Root cause: Not sure, but this worked before version react-live 3.x, I detected it while trying to migrate Docusaurus to 3.0

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in Firefox at the react-live demo URL using the documented Ctrl+A and Ctrl+V steps, then compare the behavior with a version before react-live 3.x. Done means pasting selected code works in the live editor without a SyntaxError.
