This was originally an issue by @imjohnbo in `github/special-projects`, a private repository:

> ## Summary
>
> Today, content is pasted into GitHub comments (issues, PRs, discussions, etc) as plaintext, except for a [few special cases](https://github.com/github/paste-markdown#paste-markdown-objects) managed by [`@github/paste-markdown`](https://github.com/github/paste-markdown).
>
> It's a laborious process to add formatting and links of the copy source back into the paste target. For example:
> - Copying/pasting part of a GitHub comment into a GitHub comment box – maybe in a different issue – in order to reply to it
> - Copying/pasting part of a Google Doc shared with a customer into a GitHub comment box in order to add context to it
> - ...
>
> This issue would build on https://github.com/github/special-projects/issues/679 and investigate adding Slack-like paste functionality for the features GitHub developers care about, including:

`... | `#`, `##`, etc. |

> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Mauris eleifend consectetur nisl, vel vestibulum odio mattis sit amet. Integer vehicula rhoncus augue, eu congue magna porttitor eget.

> # Big Heading

> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Mauris eleifend consectetur nisl, vel vestibulum odio mattis sit amet. Integer vehicula rhoncus augue, eu congue magna porttitor eget.

> ## Medium Heading

> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Mauris eleifend consectetur nisl, vel vestibulum odio mattis sit amet. Integer vehicula rhoncus augue, eu congue magna porttitor eget.

> ### Small Heading

> ## Spike

> I started [a spike](https://github.com/imjohnbo/paste-markdown/tree/imjohnbo/html-to-markdown) over the weekend which allows for this:

> ## Other

> 

> - [Pasteboard Viewer](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pasteboard-viewer/id1499215709?mt=12) helps understand what's in the macOS clipboard

> - Here is a [Google Doc](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dRgAa3MLK6U0HjFnvDXBP-gjdSCCatgCVDe89KPqnz8/edit?usp=sharing) with some test cases for convenience ❇️ 

Revise primeiro o spike de html-to-markdown e os casos de teste vinculados no Google Doc. Compare o comportamento existente de paste-markdown com os elementos HTML listados e defina a cobertura para títulos, código, ênfase, listas e citações; considera-se concluído quando essas entradas da área de transferência produzem o Markdown pretendido sem causar regressões nos casos especiais existentes.
