Description Roke Julian Lockhart Beedell 2024-03-25 22:54:37 UTC 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE

    1.  Install https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Factory/standard/x86_64/konsole-24.02.1-1.1.x86_64.rpm (although the version which removed it was quite some time ago, this is at least a reference).
    1.  Attempt to copy text in a specific format: plain text, or HTML.

OBSERVED RESULT

    Konsole used to allow the user to choose plain text or HTML.

    This is seriously problematic for me, because when the colour of a command's output is integral to its readability (as is true for `dmesg`, `journalctl --dmesg`, and `powershell`) I need to be able to copy the output in its exact likeness. However, to do this, I must first paste it into something which reports that it accepts HTML directly, like a web e-mail client, then download that draft and extract the HTML from it. If this feature were reimplemented, I'd merely need to choose a submenu and then paste it into my text editor.

EXPECTED RESULT

    It does not anymore.
