 * `patterns` - if present, completely overrides the normal set of patterns and uses only the patterns specified
 * `alphabet` - if present, this alphabet is used instead of [quick_select_alphabet](../config/quick_select_alphabet.md)
 * `action` - if present, this key assignment action is performed as if by [window:perform_action](../window/perform_action.md) when an item is selected.  The normal clipboard action is NOT performed in this case.
+* `paste_performs_action` - overrides whether `action` is performed after an item is selected using a capital value (when paste occurs).
 * `label` - if present, replaces the string `"copy"` that is shown at the bottom of the overlay; you can use this to indicate which action will happen if you are using `action`.
 * `scope_lines` - Specify the number of lines to search above and below the current viewport. The default is 1000 lines.
