@benjamind what does the adobe desktop application do if the user requests shutdown? Does it block until the clipboard content has been produced? Doing the same thing on the web is (generally) no OK. We do not trust pages to behave well. We have a limit on the time they can keep computing after being closed. We do not want pages that no longer have a visible UI to consume resources indefinitely as it's much harder for the user to identify and kill them. One possibility is for apps that use this API to install a `beforeunload` handler to say "you have data in the clipboard that isn't ready, are you sure you want to leave?", similar to unsubmitted forms. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/w3c/editing/issues/417#issuecomment-1482138241 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
