I confirmed that there is no paste event and, for the browser, this is treated exactly as other keyboard text input (such as selecting a suggested word) would be. So I think getting paste-related hooks to run in this situation isn’t going to be possible—there’s no way for the library to even identify it as a paste. On the bright side, users can only insert plain text this way, and may not really expect the action to be treated as a paste.
