Testing #203095

Set “markdown.editor.pasteUrlAsFormattedLink.enabled" to “smartWithSelection”.
Open md file with following text:

    Registry: A service storing and distributing container images and related artifacts, with features like authentication, 
    geo-replication, and more.

    Repository: A collection of container images or artifacts in a registry, identified by the same name but different tags.

    Artifact: An item within a registry associated with tags and layers, identified by a manifest.

    Manifest: A unique identifier generated when an artifact is pushed to the registry, specifying the artifact's

Select a word and paste a link.
The word is not turned into the textual part of an md link. Could this be intended? :bug:

@aiday-mar Are the leading spaces part of the actual text in that file? If so, the text will be rendered as a code block instead of markdown:

We disable markdown link pasting inside of code blocks so I think this is actually the expected behavior. You can then use the paste selector to switch back to a markdown link if you really want
