Like with Linux (with the clipboard.autocopy feature), there should be an option to automatically copy a selection to the clipboard under Mac OS X.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select something.
2. Paste the contents of the clipboard.
Actual Results:  
The contents have not changed.

Expected Results:  
The new selection should be pasted (e.g. if clipboard.autocopy is set to true).

Is this ever going to get fixed? Thunderbird 60.4.0 (64-bit) breaks AutoCopy2. The clipboard.autocopy boolean does nothing.  I cannot use the current release without this working given how much copying and pasting I need to do in my daily work.
Severity: normal → S3
