Bug Description
I don't believe the "copy image" function is working correctly. It just copies the url of the image with text/plain content type. This give the client of the pasteboard no indication that it's an image.
I would have expected one of the following, not sure which is correct (we should look how desktop/other platforms do it)
1) copy the actual image to the pasteboard and specify correct content type (i.e. image/jpeg, etc). I believe this is the preferred method.
2) copy the url of the image but set the content-type (i.e. image/jpeg) that it's an image so it can be easily decoded by the paste side
Steps to reproduce:
- launch browser, go to a site with an image
- long press, select "copy image" from popup menu
- open Notes, or Messaging-App
- create a new Note or Message
- long press in the text area and select "Paste" from the popup
Expected results:
- the image is pasted into the field
Actual results:
- the url of the image is pasted into the field as text

Oxide needs an additional API to allow copying an image to the clipboard. I have implemented that in https:/
