If we go here, we may as well allow the numeric to pick which quoting
style to use. :)

On a related note, someone on irc was confused about why
url-quote-magic stopped working in git, and it's of course because
bracketed pasting causes its self-insert hook to never run. We may
want to provide an alternative function to help with this case. (eg,
wrap bracketed-paste and quote if == http* or so.)
