Research direction

Start by reproducing the long-press paste behavior on a mobile device and on the site's demo. Then trace the select's focus handling during the insert menu interaction. Done means pasting from the clipboard no longer causes the select to lose focus, with the behavior covered by an appropriate regression check.
