According to Bug 952456 Comment 81, we added a new pref to toggle the non-text/rich text support for B2G clipboard on master branch in Bug 1210265. The default behavior is to enable non-text/rich text support. However, we will disable this feature once we branch if needed (Bug 1210265 Comment 7).

BTW, the preference name is "clipboard.plainTextOnly", and its default value is false. (https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/modules/libpref/init/all.js?from=all.js#2011)

Removing from 2.5 blocker list. To be handled as a task

This bug can also fix Bug 1207083 and Bug 1224045.
