javascript - How does facebook detect when a link as been PASTED

Question

Facebook's status update input (well, contenteditable div) detects links.

When typing a link it waits until the spacebar is pressed before fetching the URL.

When pasting a link it fetches the URL instantly.

I can already parse the url after the spacebar is pressed...but I'm not sure about detecting when content is pasted.

Any solution would be awesome; a jQuery formatted solution will be BEST!
