  1. Select new pasted text in normal mode only 

    d6323b7 changed the behavior of paste
to select the newly inserted text. This is preferrable in normal mode
because it's useful to be able to act on the new text. This behavior
is worse for insert or select mode though:

* In insert mode, the cursor ends up on the last character of the newly
  selected text, so further typing inserts text before the last
  character.
* In select mode, the current selection is replaced with the new text
  selection which doesn't extend the current selection. With this
  change, the selection is extended to include the new text.

This aligns the behavior more closely with Kakoune, but it's
coincidental instead of intentional: Kakoune doesn't implement
bracketed paste (AFAIK) which causes this behavior in insert mode,
and Kakoune doesn't have a select mode.
