While true, it’s a bit of a blunt force solution as it prevents all clipboard events (e.g. no ‘click here to copy’ anymore). That may be a reasonable compromis

That may be a reasonable compromise for some, but I’ve seen some weird broken behaviour as a result of people using this FF toggle.
- SOLAR_FIELDS 8y agoCould you have an extension with a toggle that turns it off temporarily only for password entry? Or even better UX, integrate it into the password manager extensions such that the temporary action is invisible to the end user? It would toggle the switch off during login, and toggle it back on after. Perhaps it's not a good idea to code too much browser-specific behavior into this stuff on the other hand.
- donatzsky 8y agoThere's an extension already that does that. It's called Don't Fuck with Paste or something like it.
- Klover 8y agoIsn’t this the default behaviour in Safari though? That’s a browser that’s used by a lot of mobile phones, and it doesn’t seem to be problematic enough for it to be changed. I think this is what Safari does at least, because the Google website tells me to hold and copy the links instead of just holding it like on my Android phone.
