Yes, bracketed paste is currently enabled by default. I may change that by
the time 5.1 is released.
I don't understand your question about tools like pexpect. If bracketed
paste mode is on, it's on. How is readline supposed to know whether or not
its stdin and stdout are connected to expect? How is the interactive shell
run by pexpect different from one connected to a terminal?
