Describe the bug Inability to paste copied content from outside of the obsidian-remote browser tab into an obsidian document. And vice versa, can't copy content from an obsidian-remote document to any other program, like notepad for instance.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open or create any document in obsidian-remote
  2. Create some text if no text exists
  3. Select text and Ctrl+V or right click and "copy"
  4. Go to another program like Notepad or another browser tab and try to paste.
  5. Nothing gets pasted.

Expected behavior I expected the data to be copied to PC's clipboard for use anywhere I wanted to paste it. And on the other side, I expected data from PC's clipboard to be pasted into obsidian-remote.

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information): Windows 10 x64 PC accessing obsidian-remote through docker container on Contabo Ubuntu VPS Browser is Chrome Version 106.0.5249.103 (Official Build) (64-bit)

There should be a circle to the left side of your browser window. In there you should find a textbox for updating the remote clipboard or copying from it. grafik
