Konsole escapes certain special characters on paste with middle mouse

I noticed whenever I paste something into Konsole using middle mouse some special characters in URLs are escaped, for example in a youtube url the question mark and equals are escaped:
https://www.youtube.com/watch\?v\=AuB03erPLnw.
I already checked “Allow escape sequences for links” in profile settings->
mouse->miscellaneous, but doesn’t seem to have done anything.
Anyone can tell me if I might be missing something else or if this is a bug?

I cannot reproduce this issue, with or without “allow escape sequences” checked, with middle click or CTRL+SHIFT+V - it always pastes the URL as I expect.

Can you share the output of kinfo here?

Nevermind… I remembered I’m using oh-my-zsh and thought that might do something, quick googled search confirmed that. Fixed it by commenting out some lines in /home/zaphod/.oh-my-zsh/lib/misc.zsh:person_facepalming:t2:
