Copy paste for authentication

Hi folks,

An interesting question has come up about Accessible Authentication.
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/issues/1292

The crux of it seems to be: Is copy-pasting a code (e.g. a one-time access code) an issue?

If that is a reliable method for the people this SC is aiming to help, we need to account for that.

From the experience of individuals in the group (directly or through observation), is copy-pasting a code (e.g. 6 digits) from one app to another a significant barrier?

E.g. if you receive a 6 digit code via SMS, is pasting that into a website (or other app) an issue?

Kind regards,

-Alastair
