Follow-up Comment #1:

I've only read a little about this, but to clarify, I think that readline
already supports this feature, therefore Octave already supports bracketed
pasting as an input to its command line. The part that is broken here is the
qterminal widget used in the GUI command window.

At the very least, I think we can patch our embedded copy of qterminal to
simply discard these start and end sequences.

If we want to keep qterminal (not sure that we do), someone could look at
updating the widget to actually support bracketed paste mode, or import
patches if that has already been done to qterminal by someone else.
