Allow paragraphs with headline formatting to move to clipboard

Paragraphs that have heading styles applied are not included when moving multiple selected paragraphs to the clipboard.

There are various reasons we sometimes want to move part of the content of a story to the clipboard and be able to move it back in later, such as a developing story where we can have some pre-written material available to move into the file on deadline. Also, as a headless client, we sometimes need to remove the file contents and replacement with code blocks on elevated digital design presentations but have the content more readily available to move back into the file if we need to restore it short term to re-send the content to our print platform.

As it is now, we have to apply normal paragraph to those headlines to get them to move to clipboard.

    Hi there! Thank you for surfacing this! What you're describing here absolutely makes sense and we'll do some investigation to see what we might be able to accomplish here, though we can't share any immediate timing. Thank you!
