In a just world, CTRL-v would paste without formatting, and the more difficult CTRL-SHIFT-v would retain formatting. The vastly more desired (by users, not by product managers) operation should be invoked by the simpler keystroke.

How often do you cut and paste and actually want to bring over someone else’s colors and fonts? 1% of the time? 0.1%?




Probably more like 50% of the time for me. Copying code with formatting from an IDE to Google Docs is amazingly useful.
