I did via event on the editor container where I had to override the addEventListener so I could abort calling the native one on paste with files.

in the chat editor they do it by navigator.clipboard.read() but that requires elevated rights.

I spose what we need is access to the registerDocumentPasteEditProvider so we can add our own pasters with pasteMimeTypes etc - could also be nice for making e.g. html -> markdown conversions on paste.
