Take your time, there's no rush. The next regular Tramp release is
scheduled for end of the year.

Please find attached a patch that resolves the bracketed paste issues nicely for me.  It does so by setting two environment variables when initially establishing the remote shell: `EMACS=t`, which bash interprets to disable line editing, and `TERM=dumb`, which is a better match than the default interactive terminal type I get.

Google own the copyright on this change, such as it is, but they have papers on file with the FSF.  (As do I, for TRAMP, though I have not contributed since 2000 or so, haha.)
