Describe the bug
I opened a notepad (Win11)
I wrote this in the notepad: test [enter] test [enter] test [enter]
I selected the entire text and copied it to the clipboard
I created a "Text" element in the GrapesJS editor
I copied the text from the clipboard into the "Text" element
I clicked outside
This will be the result

If I enter this text into a "Text" element manually test [enter] test [enter] test [enter] and click outside, the text will be placed in 1 "Text" element. This is good. Unfortunately, people usually paste the text.

Can anyone help me with this?
The text was a plain text, it had no tags. I tested with \n and \r\n line breaks, it doesn't work well. Unnecessary tags appear in GrapesJS when inserting plain text with line breaks.
@Ameeko & @artf I'm also having this issue. Has anyone found a fix for this?
