Re: [w3c/clipboard-apis] Should clipboard actions consider whether selection has focus? (#57)

As @xiaochengh pointed out when selection is greyed out this is the true case of loss of focus. Browser doesn't really takes away the focus when clicking on the checkbox in your example. Being in focus is still a requirement to effectively being able to insert into DOM (by the user, I mean). 

Also, I am pretty sure all browsers send visual queues to the user if a selection is not in focus so there is not confusion to the user.

Perhaps, we could add an constrain to the first part of the statement - "...element that is in focus and contains the start of the visible selection in document order"
