Create multiple column vectors by entering a matrix?

I find myself copy/pasting 3xN matrices into Matlab frequently. When I do paste in the matrix, I eventually like to specify the columns as new variables so that I can use the plot3 command or similar. My current process is as follows:
data = [1 2 3; 1 2 3; 1 2 3];
x = data(:,1);
y = data(:,2);
z = data(:,3);
plot3(x,y,z);
Alternatively, after I paste in data, I plot using the following syntax:
plot3(data(:,1),data(:,2),data(:,3));
I would much prefer a solution such as:
[x,y,z] = [1 2 3; 1 2 3; 1 2 3];
But I know that this does not work. Does anyone have a trick or tip for me to expedite my process?
Thanks!

data = [1 2 3; 1 2 3; 1 2 3];
data = num2cell(data,1);
[x,y,z] = deal(data{:})
It would be nice if we could somehow combine lines 2 and 3 (i.e. [x,y,z] = deal(num2cell(data,1){:})), but I've never found a neat syntax to do comma separated list expansion in that way.

Here is an alternative solution. Rather than littering your workspace with unnecessary variables and wasting memory simply create an anonymous function wrapper for plot3:
myplot3 = @(X,varargin) plot3(X(:,1),X(:,2),X(:,3),varargin{:});
This creates no new data variables in your workspace, and gives neater code:
data = [3,2,1;2,0,2;1,2,3];
myplot3(data)

I wish I only needed this for plotting purposes, but you taught me something about varargin, so I appreciate that!
