CTRL+V after searching doesn't start autotype anymore #2403

Description

Expected Behavior

In earlier versions, it was possible to search for an entry using the search bar, and directly start autotype when the respective entry is selected. This doesn't work in 2.3.4 anymore.

Current Behavior

Instead, CTRL+V works as 'paste' and pastes the current clipboard content into the search field.

Possible Solution

I understand that using CTRL+V in a text input field can be expected to paste text. However, this change breaks accustomed user flow. A possible solution would be user-configurable shortcuts. See also https://xkcd.com/1172/ ;)
