Re: [clipboard-apis] Fix the handling of password fields with the copy and cut actions (#5)

I think a good UX for a password field would be one where the user could click on a button and reveal the contents of the password box.  If a UA implements that, they should probably support copying that content as well.  But with the traditional password box implementation, I think copying makes no sense.  For example, if I have |*********| in my password field, and select the first three stars and copy them, what am I exactly copying to the clipboard?  :-)
