#51215: WordPress 5.5 no longer respects Headings values when pasting in text

 In previous versions of WordPress, if you wrote a post outside of
 Wordpress and then imported it, the import process would respect any
 Headings you made - so if you set H2, H3, H4, etc, in OneNote or Word,
 when you imported it, the Headings values you set would transfer to the
 Wordpress post.

 Now, in 5.5, this no longer happens. If you paste in text, all the
 Headings come in as Paragraphs. This is incredibly annoying and it is very
 time-consuming to go back and change them, constantly referring to your
 written document to see what the Headings values should be.

 I am submitting this as a bug, as this was not how previous versions
 worked and is not mentioned in the release notes, so I imagine it is
 unintended.
