Office should let me change default paste behavior.

[BEACHDBA]

Office products should let me change my default paste behavior to the
equivalent of Paste Special - Unformatted Text. I'm always using shortcuts
to paste text into a document only to bring over formatting from a different
document or web page. I then have to redo everything using Paste Special
through the menu so my current document's formatting is used. Slow and
annoying.

The default paste behavior can be changed with a macro.

Here's a different approach that works for every application on your
machine, not just Office products. PureText is my all-time favorite free
program.
