[issue39820] Bracketed paste mode for REPL

I suggest closing this issue. If the REPL is going to be improved, it won't be done one-feature-at-a-time on the bug tracker. It will need to have a holistic design that takes into account desired features and the architecture of the systems that it needs to interface with. Windows and Linux may require very different approaches. For such a design, the bug tracker is a poor choice of venue for the discussion. I suggest starting on python-ideas and maybe python-dev until a design and set of features is decided on, and only at that point open issue(s) on the bug tracker.

That said, I'm not sure it's worth complicating CPython itself with such changes, when IPython exists. But that can be decided on python-ideas and then on python-dev.
