Re: [w3c/clipboard-apis] Clipboard Permission (#51)

For background, see the [WICG proposal](https://discourse.wicg.io/t/proposal-modern-asynchronous-clipboard-api/1513).

`clipboardchange` is required for apps that synchronize the clipboard (e.g., remote access or pasteboard sync) need this to know when to send the updated clipboard contents to the secondary system. Note that this event also requires the ability to read/write without a gesture (it doesn't contain any clipboard data), so it would need to be followed by a call to `clipboard.read()`.

Supporting other media types is not being considered here.

I agree that clipboard access should be restricted to the tab with input focus.
