Description David 2018-07-14 15:21:11 UTC
Oftentimes, one wants to write plain text (i.e. unformatted) in the notes widget. However, as it supports formatted text, when one tries to copy-paste something from, say, a web browser, it copies it with format included, which most of the times is not the desired behavior.

Would be nice if it would have the option to paste as simple text e.g. when right-clicking, and being able to set that as the default paste behavior.

I looked into this once but adding a new action to the context menu proved quite challenging. I also thought about adding a "broom" button that cleans any styles.
Definitely something I'd like to see, hence confirming, but won't promise to implement it anytime soon.
