A possible alternative behavior could be somewhat similar to what CIRCE
does, but may be more intensive to implement. CIRCE, when pasting
multiline content offers to send the content to a paste-service, and
then kills the URL to the buffer and sends that instead.
What if we had a paste.emacs.org that ERC could utilize here?
Just a thought.
