[Bug 1317360] [NEW] Cannot highlight text to copy to clipboard, and cannot paste text from clipboard

 

Public bug reported:

I found that in this webapp as of 0.0.6, I cannot highlight text by
click and drag (to copy and paste). It is only possible to highlight
single words by double clicking on it.

Also, I cannot paste (via control-v) in text from the clipboard which
was copied from outside of this app. Though I noticed I was able to
paste single words copied from within the app after being highlighted by
double click. It seems like this webapp doesn't use the OS-wide
clipboard. Makes pasting a link from browsers a chore.

In contrast, the chrome app web-o-gram can do both without any issues.
