Text-only paste in Google Chrome

Quick Chrome tip:

Control-V will paste from your clipboard and preserve formatting. If you use Control-Shift-V, only the text will be pasted.

That’ll save me time. I regularly have to use Notepad as a proxy.

That’s handy, although personally I use AutoHotKey to get that functionality across all apps.

Sounds convenient - I’ll have to check that out.
