Synopsis: Request for additional action_sequences on textables

Description
I would like additional action sequences to be added to textables (in my case EV_TEXT_FIELD) in order to know when a user copies, cuts, pastes etc. I wish to perform specific processing upon these operations when performed by a user. It is not possible for me to query the `text_change_actions’ and perform this every time a key is pressed.

 

Currently, to know if Ctrl-V was used to paste text, I respond to a keypress of `V’ and see if the Ctrl key is pressed. Unfortunately, it is not possible for me to know if a user performed the paste via the right click contextual menu.
