          info: (e, args) => console.log('info: ', e, args),
          warn: (e, args) => console.log('warn: ', e, args),
          error: (e, args) => console.log('error: ', e, args)
      }
  });

• New ignoreBracketedPasteMode option that allows explicitly disabling bracketed paste mode, regardless of whether the shell enables it or not (#4636) via @Tyriar
