Pasting images doesn't work

[mschering]

I'm implementing automatic image upload when you paste an image in the editor. This didn't work for firefox because the editor calls event.preventDefault() on the paste event in _initParser(). I made a small change to only do that when text is returned from the paste event. This way the image is inserted in the editor and my code can grab that image for uploading. Any chance that you can make this change in the core?

Thanks!

I load this javascript to allow pasting in firefox:

wysihtml5.Editor.prototype._initParser = function() {
      var oldHtml,
          cleanHtml;

      if (wysihtml5.browser.supportsModenPaste()) {
        this.on("paste:composer", function(event) {

          oldHtml = wysihtml5.dom.getPastedHtml(event);
          if (oldHtml) {
                        event.preventDefault();
            this._cleanAndPaste(oldHtml);
          }
        }.bind(this));

      } else {
        this.on("beforepaste:composer", function(event) {
          event.preventDefault();
          var scrollPos = this.composer.getScrollPos();

          wysihtml5.dom.getPastedHtmlWithDiv(this.composer, function(pastedHTML) {
            if (pastedHTML) {
              this._cleanAndPaste(pastedHTML);
            }
            this.composer.setScrollPos(scrollPos);
          }.bind(this));

        }.bind(this));
      }
    };

Pasting images would bring this editor closer to Summernote or Froala.

I'm comparing WYSIWYG editors and have been looking for this feature.
