[w3c/clipboard-apis] What should `clipboard.readText()` return when the clipboard contains multiple clipboard items? (Issue #166)

Currently, `clipboard.readText()` returns a `Promise<DOMString>`. However, when `clipboard.read()` would return multiple `ClipboardItem`s, multiple of those items may contain a `text/plain` representation.

I see the following answers to above question:
1. Specify to return either the first or the last item's `text/plain` representation.
2. Specify to throw an error and a method like `clipboard.getNumberOfClipboardItems()`.
3. Specify to return a sequence of `DOMString`s.

Since multiple `ClipboardItem`s are only supported on Apple's OSs, Apple's view on this would be appreciated.
