As of Firefox 63 I intend to turn on navigator.clipboard.* by default. It has been developed behind the “dom.events.asyncClipboard” preference. The APIs that will be exposed are clipboard.readText and clipboard.writeText and they will be exposed to secure contexts only. The readText API will only be usable from WebExtension contexts.
See more details about this feature in the following ‘intent to implement’ thread: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.platform/skHoHwfapEY Chrome has been shipping this by default since 66.
