SUMMARY
An expression of the type `A=B`, when pasted in the input field, gives the same result as `A*B`.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open KCalc in simple mode;
2. paste `3+2=5` in the input field and press the "Return" key.

OBSERVED RESULT
The input field now shows "13". The history shows "3+2=5=13".

EXPECTED RESULT
I would expect the behavior shown with other unparsable inputs, i.e. the result field shows an "Input error" warning, the input field remains unchanged (allowing me to correct my input), and the history remains empty.
