The testcase worked as expected on win10. This could be a macos issue.

When right-clicking on a .png file, and clicking "Copy" on it, then pasting to the reporter's jsfiddle, nothing is pasted. Works with Chrome and Safari.

With Firefox, currentItem.type is text/plain.

Surprise. After installing the latest macOS updates, this works on Nightly an Release. The clipboard now contains two flavors: text/plain and image/png.
