@froemken This is a suggestion to integrate the paste as reference feature, known from gridelements (which most people forget that this is not a core feature) and missing it when migrating away from gridelements.
There is also a dedicated extension called paste_reference which does only the paste_reference stuff without additional gridlement addion.
As far as I understand this proposal, it is about having that JavaScript (TypeScript) along with some coloring preview rendering (PageLayout module) like gridelements/paste_reference directly in the core - because that would mean that the core have to maintain it, mainly because not many people are contributing to the paste_reference extension.
On Top of that, I guess the core integration would require some kind of registry/event system to allow extension to register/intervine here (for example Gridelements).
For those who are not familiar with the paste reference feature from gridelements can you please describe the benefit of paste_reference over the “Insert Record” content element which already exists in the core.
