Research direction

Start by locating the Input Editor's paste handling and any right-click or context-menu entry points. Reproduce a paste from the web, then verify that the requested action inserts text with formatting stripped and remains parseable by the shell.

Describe the solution you'd like?
Sometimes developers will copy and paste from the web into Warp. This will occasionally result in formatting that the shell cannot parse. It would be nice if devs could right click and paste the text with the formatting stripped.
