+Explicitly disable bracketed paste in the interactive interpreter, even if it's
+set in the inputrc, is enabled by default (eg GNU Readline 8.1), or a user calls
+readline.read_init_file(). The Python REPL has not implemented bracketed
+paste support. Also, bracketed mode writes the "\x1b[?2004h" escape sequence
+into stdout which causes test failures in applications that don't support it.
+It can still be explicitly enabled by calling readline.parse_and_bind("set
+enable-bracketed-paste on"). See bpo-42819 for more details.
+
+This should be removed if bracketed paste mode is implemented (bpo-39820).
