right-click "paste & search"
There is currently a bug in Windows that a right-click in the Magic Wand search box won't allow you to paste. (is there a bug ticket for this?)
When this is addressed, I suggest you also add an option like that in the Firefox address bar, which has "paste" and "paste & go". So I would like Zotero to have both "paste" and "paste & search" for this search box.
I think that 95% of the time that someone pastes something into the Magic Wand box they want to immediately search for it, so this would be a UI improvement.

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
Anyway, you can use the standard keyboard shortcut: ctrl+v . A "paste& go" option is not necessary in most cases since zotero "searches as you type" (the only exception is when the advanced search mode is enabled by enclosing the string in quotes - just press Enter in that case.)
I wasn't even aware of paste&search, but of course the magic wand doesn't do search as you type, so once right-click works, paste&search would remove one click.
