Please do not override paste

[alexdima]

Hi, I'm a VS Code developer and we started to notice a number of issues lately regarding paste being broken:

• Multiple cursor experience is getting worse microsoft/vscode#83080
• Multicursor - on paste  microsoft/vscode#83063
• Linux: Multiple Cursor Copy/Paste microsoft/vscode#83017
• Command-C & Command-V does not duplicate the whole line microsoft/vscode#83003
• ctrl+d and paste behavior microsoft/vscode#82850

Please consider removing this functionality or talk to us so we can add necessary API to enable format on paste. cc @jrieken @egamma

Steps To Reproduce

1. create multiple cursors and copy
2. move to another region and paste

The bug is fixed, but I'll disable the feature by default for starters, will release an update ASAP.

@alexandrudima @akaroml @testforstephen see proposed fix in #1116. I'll cut a release once merged.

@fbricon What are you trying to do on paste? Run formatter or run code actions? The former already exists via editor.formatOnPaste and it will call available DocumentRangeFormattingEditProviders, the latter doesn't exists but would be a valid feature request imo (/cc @mjbvz)

@jrieken I want to trigger organize import on paste. See microsoft/vscode#43718

[jrieken]

Thanks - I'll make sure it's on our radar

vscode-java 0.52.0 has been released with the fix. The original paste action is no longer overridden. You now need to paste with Ctrl+Shift+v (Cmd+Shift+v on mac) to enjoy the auto import on paste.

Thank you for the prompt fix ❤️ !
