Thanks for that hint. I've added the following to my zshrc directly
after "zle -N self-insert url-quote-magic":

  autoload -Uz bracketed-paste-magic
  zle -N bracketed-paste bracketed-paste-magic

(as mentioned inside a comment in
Functions/Zle/bracketed-paste-magic.)

Now it seems to work again, thanks! Interestingly zsh 5.0.8 seems to
have no issue with that config either, so I don't have to guard it
with some version test. Neat!

Hehe. Yeah, I consider it one of the best zsh features, at least a
very good selling argument. :-)

		Kind regards, Axel
