Simpler selection and copy/pasting

[mosch]

Description of the issue

• Currently it is hard to select multiple specific texblocks
  • via keyboard
  • or even with mouse
• Copy and Pasting thus becomes a little tricky
  • There is the system native “selection”
    • only works for single lines
      
      
  • there is the logseq specific selection
    • not precises with mouse, does work so/so with keyboard
      
      

Why is this an issue?

• It makes copy&paste harder
• The system behaviors are different depending on the type of selection
  • The system native selection copys what you see/select
  • The logseq selection copies the underlying markdown
    • Tools that do not support markdown will have you delete a lot of #####
• When using notes from logseq in other tools (Word, Powerpoint, Keynote, …) you often want to transfer snippets of information

Suggested behavior

• Use one way of selection … ideally the system native one
• Use one way of behavior WYSIWYG or MD copy&past

would love to be able to paste in a plain text document as an indented bullet list (instead of markdown headings)
