Re: [w3c/editing] Seeking feedback on delayed clipboard rendering proposal (Issue #417)

A comment I made that didn't make it into the notes: UAs could consider integrating with the Reporting API for the scenario where a site places deferred content on the clipboard, the user navigates away from the site, and the user attempts to paste. This could act as a signal to sites that they should consider doing something in "beforeunload" handling, e.g. prompting the user that clipboard data will be lost.

I think I've seen native Excel do something like this at least on macOS; I think it has heuristics and makes the clipboard content deferred if over a certain size, and warns on app shutdown?
