Re: [editing] What do we need to integrate with the clipboard api? (#64)

> The spec is meant to not let CE Event Editing Hosts work as editing hosts for execCommand. So as far as commands that don't need an editing host goes, I guess they should still function. For those that do require an editing host, they will not work. If I understand you right, the copy command should not require an editing host, so in theory that should still work. Cut should be implementable through the copy logic.

It seems so.

Why shouldn't paste work? It works right now in `contentEditable=true` if `execCommand()` was executed in a trusted event.
