bool "Enable bracketed paste"
depends on BR2_PACKAGE_READLINE
help
Enable the "bracketed paste" feature in libreadline.
Bracketed paste is helpful for interactive sessions when
one wants to prevent pasted text from being interpreted
as typed-in commands. However, it also causes control
characters to show up in the raw output of a (telnet)
session. This can cause issues and throw off pattern
matching if the session output is being captured for
automated processing.

may want it, see:
