mapping table mystery--or is it misery?

I use PureText to paste only the text content:

There are also other solutions out there, e.g. an AutoHotkey script:

^+v::
    ; Convert any copied files, HTML, or other formatted text to plain text
    Clipboard = %Clipboard%

    ; Paste by pressing Ctrl+V
    SendInput, ^v
return

There are many variants, discussed e.g. here:
