Suggestion: Add a preference to control the pasting of 'Source Urls' in the comments

[Gary]

If you select and copy to clipboard, say, the "ToDoList (AbstractSpoon) Support" header above and paste it into task (Rich Text) Comments, the copied text will be followed by two links:

ToDoList (AbstractSpoon) Support

( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!newtopic/abstractspoon-todolist-support )

( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!newtopic/abstractspoon-todolist-support )

Although it is possible to immediately perform an Undo (twice) to get rid of the links, after a few dozen of such usage pattern executions it becomes quite... hard to bear.

Generally speaking, pasting formatting-specific (thus context-aware) content into a Rich Text paragraph might have some merit, but enriching (thus changing) the original content that was copied is probably a bit of an anti-feature.

I would vote for some kind of a setting that would allow a user to paste copied content as: 1.) formatted content with links, or 2.) formatted content in its original textual form, or 3.) unformatted (plain text) content.

[.dan.g.]

I'll add a preference in 7.1 to include (or not) the source of the pasted content.

Thanks!
