I would like the option to paste directly into a edit page rather that upload image. This is specifically useful where inputting screenshots.

Hi, Thanks for the bug submit. This seems to be firefox specific as this works from chrome, I've updated the title to be more descriptive of the issue.

Thought this would be a quick fix but firefox does not seem to support the latest clipboard API's. Will have to look into the potential workarounds. Links for reference:

As of FireFox 50 (Due to release in a few days) this will be fixed. Now no point in finding a work-around.
