[Bug 1463435] [NEW] Copy doesn't actually go to clipboard

 

Public bug reported:

So because of the general limitations in the webbrowser-app, I use
firefox as a backup (for videos and downloading files). I occasionally
try to select copy, thinking that this will copy the link to a clipboard
so that I can give the link to firefox for handling, only to find that
there is no paste option in firefox! You must store the copied in the
actual clipboard, not in the clipboard that you have created just for
this app. This is a big difference for desktop integration.
