  Right, the problem is when using the keyboard shortcut, because ctrl+v previously included formatting by default. Now it doesn't. I don't know why we're arguing over something already committed. I'm against reverting it.

  I don't think that's realistic here. What we would prefer the user to do or learn and what the average user in all practicality is going to be able to do or learn are not always the same things. Sometimes improving the user experience for the common case pushes us in the direction of breaking a convention, and that's why we did it. Consistency is good when it improves the user experience, but when it hinders it, we should be willing to be flexible.
