Advanced Paste - Image as Base64 #35933

Closed ScriptJayT closed 6 hours ago

ScriptJayT commented 6 hours ago

Description of the new feature / enhancement

When pasting an image in a text file/input; it would paste the base64 (or some other user defined html-readable) encryption of that image file.

Scenario when this would be used?

It allows pasting images as useful text in environments that don't allow direct image pasting.

For example, I use base64 images pretty often in building html-applications where I don't want to separately load an image file. I always need to first download an image then reupload it to a base64 converter to then copy the resulting string into my application. Being able to skip this download/upload step would save a lot of time.
