Re: [w3c/charter-html] WebPlat charter: Focus on user research (#146)

For example - let me pick on the [Clipboard API use cases](https://www.w3.org/TR/clipboard-apis/#Cases).

> There are many use cases for being able to change the default clipboard operations (cut/copy/paste). We have collected a few samples to demonstrate possible uses, although these may not all be supported by this specification.

How can you write a specification without a clear understanding of *all* the possible use cases?

You need to be able to say something like "As a web developer, I want to be able to directly read the clipboard of a user on my site, in order to..."

Or, "As a visitor to a website, I want to know when a website tries to access my clipboard and grant or deny permission, so that I can be secure."

Ideally, every use case should be backed up by research.  Even if they're not, every part of the spec should clearly say how it addresses a use case.
