[Mozile] Paste Bin

[Michael Stenitzer]

hi,

i haven't worked with mozilla extensions for a longer time now, but i
think the extension http://allowclipboard.foxinus.cz/ is what other
online editor use for this problem. but maybe the situation is totally
different in mozile's case.

regards, michael
