Re: [w3c/clipboard-apis] Async clipboard read and race conditions. (Issue #180)

In what kind of scenarios can this happen? When there is another app writing to the clipboard or the end user is lightning fast?

Thinking through possible scenarios a bit I think I agree with @smaug----'s remark that there's always a possibility for races here and not all of them you will be able to detect.

It seems fine to allow an exception in case something is considered amiss, but I would expect this kind of thing to not be common except on a system that's compromised in some manner.
