I use Firefox as my main browser on Debian Linux, but I frequently run into a clipboard issue when working in Google Docs. When I try to paste text using the right-click context menu or browser menu, Google Docs shows a message asking me to use Ctrl+V instead.

I understand that clipboard access involves important security concerns, but this creates a real usability problem in daily work. I have tried the Google Docs Offline extension and several clipboard-related settings in about:config, but the issue still persists.

Because of this, I often have to open Google Docs in Chrome/Chromium-based browsers just to work smoothly with copying and pasting. This is frustrating, because I would prefer to stay in Firefox for my regular workflow.

It would be very helpful if Firefox could improve clipboard compatibility with Google Docs, or provide a clearer permission-based way for trusted sites like Google Docs to handle paste actions from the context menu.

Thank you for considering this improvement.
