Terry J. Reedy added the comment:
Yes, it is a real nuisance when pasting code that has '>>>'. You have to select
and delete to get rid of each. This is related to #1178, but this bug should be
fixed if possible even if that were implemented.

New submission from etuardu :
In the editor window, if a line starts with the shell prompt string ">>>",
backspacing is inhibited when reaching the first space, just like in the shell
window.
