Current Behavior

In newer versions of Altair, I cannot paste values with a trailing newline into the value field of the Headers popup anymore. When pressing Ctrl+V, nothing happens, no value is pasted.

Expected Behavior

I would expect that the value gets pasted. This worked before, in version 6.3.0 for example. Probably the newline should be trimmed off as I suppose it's an illegal character for HTML headers. But the pasting should simply work.

Btw: this is relevant because our team uses the Headers on all requests to add the Authorization header. The value, a bearer token, we copy from the Chrome Network tab. This simple "triple click the token, press Ctrl+C" action apparently includes a trailing newline. Screenshot:

Having the newline in the clipboard value didn't matter before (personally I still use 6.3.0), but it prevents pasting in newer versions.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Ctrl+C a value with a trailing newline (e.g.: a Bearer token copied from a request in the Chrome Network tab)
2. Open the Headers popup in Altair 7.3.6
3. Give the header a name (e.g. Authorization)
4. Try to paste the value into the header value field.

Environment

- OS: Windows 11
- Platform: Windows application
- Version: 7.3.6
