Re: [clipboard-apis] Move script-created events out of "fire a clipboard event" (#16)

@annevk: Not sure what you are referring to. CE=intentions (or whatever it will be called in the end) is specifically meant to not work with execCommand. There has been a long discussion about that some months ago.
We really only need one, or possibly two new functions then: one to initiate copying, and possibly one to initiate paste with some checks that they are user initiated. Whatever checks you use for the equivalent legacy execCommand functions should work here as well. Cutting should not need to be something apart from copying as all changes to the DOM will be handled directly by JS code.
