Re: [w3c/clipboard-apis] Option to specify ClipboardItem is sensitive in .write() and .writeText() (#154)

The Web Editing Working Group just discussed `ClipboardItem is sensitive in .write/.writeText()`.

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;Travis> Topic: ClipboardItem is sensitive in .write/.writeText()<br>
&lt;Travis> github: https://github.com/w3c/clipboard-apis/issues/154<br>
&lt;Travis> BoCupp: This is an option that allows one to specify whether clipboard items roam and/or are included in history<br>
&lt;Travis> .. a common feature of various platforms.<br>
&lt;Travis> tilgovi: https://meet.google.com/pdx-dnmm-cen<br>
&lt;Travis> BoCupp: This is something that we [Microsoft] could take up and write an explainer for?<br>
&lt;Travis> Anne: My main concern is about the default values (which ones should be correct)?<br>
&lt;Travis> BoCupp: Defaults should be what the user has configured on the platform.<br>
&lt;Travis> .. [cites how Windows-clipboard prompts on first-use...]<br>
&lt;Travis> .. There may be exceptions for privacy modes, or copying from a password field (context specific)<br>
&lt;Travis> Anne: Is it OK for websites to override defaults?<br>
&lt;Travis> BoCupp: I think so.<br>
&lt;Travis> .. specifying per-format allows imposing limits. (e.g., large bitmap roaming)<br>
&lt;Travis> Anne: How will a website make the right decision? Do expose the user preference?<br>
&lt;whsieh> q+<br>
&lt;whsieh> q-<br>
&lt;Travis> BoCupp: I don't think we would expose the user preference--the implementation would configure this as desired.<br>
&lt;Travis> .. We might add additional restrictions<br>
&lt;whsieh> q+<br>
&lt;whsieh> q-<br>
&lt;Travis> BoCupp: We can continue discussion in the issue... when we're ready to draft a PR we'll revisit.<br>
