[Suggestion] Option to save to clipboard

[cocoaaa]

Hi, thank you for creating this useful extension. I'm curious if I can change the save setting to save it to the clipboard instead of downloading it to the default chrome's download location.

I often need to put the screenshot in Keynote/PPT slide and it would be really useful if I can bypass the intermediate steps of copy-pasting the downloaded image to the slides.

Thank you!

Added in version 2.3.0, thanks to @roxaloxa.

This had the immediate effect of breaking the extension for all current users and producing a concerning warning.

Perhaps this could have been handled better.

This should be fixed in version 2.3.2. I've removed the clipboardWrite permission, as it doesn't seem to be necessary.

having to click "accept new permissions" is hardly breaking an extension, but regardless, turns out that permission was unnecessary so apologies for including that. first time messing with extension stuff. 😓

I agree with @roxaloxa, though I do wish Chrome's warning wasn't so misleading & poorly worded – you can hardly “modify” any data since you can't read anything, and what's wrong with copying to the clipboard anyway? – and that their documentation was better.

The permission is “recommended” for extensions yet you still get this awful treatment anyway.
