Re: keymap in yank-excluded-properties

    `yank' will look for that property on kill-ring elements and call the
    function with one argument: the string (or rectangle?) to yank.  The
    function is then responsible for inserting the string in the buffer
    and remove any unwanted properties [i.e. it is expected to do the
    actual insertion].

    A table could have this property set to a function which check that 
    the string to insert is really a complete table -- and keep the 
    properties in that case [using insert] -- or remove the properties 
    otherwise [using insert-for-yank].

That solution could work.

Does anyone see a more narrowly targeted solution to suggest?
