So does this mean that any page that can pop up a window today will be
able to put stuff on my system clipboard? As popup blockers in the various
browsers are pretty ineffectual (sorry browser authors), this concerns me,
I really donšt want a browser putting anything on my clipboard unless I
explicitly tell it to, and moving the mouse on a page or clicking anywhere
on a page (both things Išve seen trigger popups) isnšt me being explicit.
