// The user middle-clicked on a link. Usually users do this to open a link in a new tab, but
// in X11 (Linux) this will instead paste the contents of the primary selection at the mouse
// cursor. Users almost certainly do not want to paste when middle-clicking on a link, so
// tell the 'paste' event handler to suppress the paste. This is done by starting a
// short-lived timer that suppresses paste (when the target is a link) until either the
// paste event arrives or the timer fires.
//
// Why it is implemented this way:
// * Users want to be able to paste on a link via Ctrl-V, the Edit menu, or the context
// menu (https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/issues/2775) so we cannot simply
// suppress all paste actions when the target is a link.
// * Non-X11 systems do not paste when the user middle-clicks, so the paste suppression
// must be self-resetting.
// * On non-X11 systems, middle click should continue to open the link in a new tab.
// Suppressing the middle click here in the 'auxclick' handler (via e.preventDefault())
// would break that behavior.
suppressPasteOnLink = scheduler.setTimeout(() => { suppressPasteOnLink = null; }, 0);

// TODO: this breaks pasting strings into URLS when using if (suppressPasteOnLink != null && (e.target.a || e.target.localName === "a")) {
// Control C and Control V -- the Event is never available scheduler.clearTimeout(suppressPasteOnLink);
// here.. :( suppressPasteOnLink = null;
