Pasting text through the wormhole no longer works #111

Pasting text into the entry box (via long press on mobile or right click on desktop) no longer works. I suspect a change was made that assumes availability of the JS clipboard API, which I have disabled in about:config for privacy/safety reasons.

which about:config flag did you change to disable the clipboard api? and which browser?

i'm trying to reproduce this. on firefox, disabling dom.event.clipboardevents blocks all clipboard events from javascript, including the regular context menu "paste". the paste feature always used these events, since it was added 2 years ago!
