	* Paste with No Formatting: I'm incredibly annoyed that the new RC6 automatically pastes HTML formatting into my maps. While useful SOMETIMES, other times this is extremely frustrating. I spend a lot of time researching topics from blogs to wikipedia and beyond. Sometimes when I paste something the font size is massive, or other HTML formatting comes with it, resulting in me having to re-edit EVERY node EVERY time I paste it so that I can get a consistent format on my map. Can we add a toggle for HTML Pasting, or even a special command called "Paste Text Only" or something like that???? MUCH APPRECIATED!!! I LOVE THIS PROGRAM		* Paste with No Formatting: I'm incredibly annoyed that the new RC6 automatically pastes HTML formatting into my maps.
