When dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled is toggled to false, pasting in Google Documents no longer work
Some websites, like my bank, don’t let you paste into the password field. I don’t want to manually type in the password. I found a workaround:
- Go to about:config
- Search for dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled
- Double-click it to change the value to "false"
But the problem is that pasting into a google document no longer works. I have to revert the value back to “true” to get copy-pasting working in a google document.
Is there a way to have the best of both worlds: paste in google docs and paste in sites that block pasting, like my bank?

Can you not remember a login for your bank?

There are extensions for this like Don't **** With Paste, though you need a high degree of trust to use it on a bank site.

Hi Terry, I was creating a new password for this bank (new account). Remembering a login is a step that follows this.

Hi ZeroKnight, Is there no way to have the "best of both worlds" without an extension? In other words, by making changes to about:config or javascript or something under the hood?
Does using "Use Saved Login/Password" in the context menu not work as well ? You may have to hold the Shift key when right-clicking.
