 Due to whole buffer formatting limitations of some protocols, pasting
 formatted text can result in weird formatting in the entry box. Ideally,
 this is how it should work:
 {{{
 if (wbfo)
 {
     if (no text)
     {
         keep as much formatting as possible
         reset formatting after the message is sent, or if it is completely
 deleted
     }
     else
     {
         drop the formatting of the pasted text,
               keeping that of the previously-typed text
     }
 }
 else
 {
     keep formatting of pasted text
     reset formatting of the insertion point
               to that of the formatting pre-paste
 }
 }}}
