Notes

Internet Explorer will display a security prompt for access to the OS clipboard.

Chrome 42+, Opera 29+ and Firefox 41+ support clipboard reading/writing only when part of a user action (click, keydown, etc).

Only supports Text and URL data types and uses a non-standard method of interacting with the clipboard.
Only fires copy event on a valid selection and only cut and paste in focused editable fields.
Only supports OS clipboard reading/writing via shortcut keys, not through document.execCommand().
Only supports paste event (on focused editable field).
Does not support the ClipboardEvent constructor
Supports cut & copy events without a focused editable field, but not paste (presumably for security reasons)
Supports cut & copy events without a focused editable field, but does not fire paste with document.execCommand('paste')

Bugs

Before Firefox 41, queryCommandEnabled and execCommand with arguments cut, copy or paste would throw errors instead of return false.
