Konsole copies font/formatting information to the clipboard. I'm not sure this is, strictly speaking, a 'bug', but it's a 'feature' I can't imagine anyone would want from a shell/text console. It is highly annoying pasting anything into Chrome/GMail or LibreOffice and getting whatever random monospace font it tries to use. (Yes, I can right-click and choose 'paste as plain text', but why should I not be able to middle-click?) A shell console should always be considered plain text and not have associated font information. This should be turned off for Konsole, or at least made a profile option.
https://phabricator.kde.org/D10448 should be fixed for next release 18.04
