Sounds good, that's fine if it is possible to detect when a paste is
being done and switch the setting back and forth silently without
having to use config files.

Is it possible in the GUI to detect both kinds of paste, i.e. ctrl-v
vs. old-fashioned middle mouse click, or did you mean only ctrl-v
since it's done through the Qt API?
