> blocking pasting is bad because it blocks my password manager again this is just a very ad-hoc opinion, theres nothing stopping a password manager from faking keyboard inputs, or the browser from having a mechanism for supplying a password externally. that said, blocking pasting is fucking insanely stupid and shouldnt even be something web apps have control over. incidentally, the same "we dont have to concretely define anything" mentality is the same behind both issues here: allowing browser control over paste is a way of letting the app implement 1% more applications that would be impossible otherwise, while breaking stuff by ruining the abstraction; and providing a password externally would require inter application API which always fucks up because nobody has the balls to define anything concretely. |
