Yeah, when you copy something in private browsing mode, Firefox flags it with the special MIME hint "x-kde-passwordManagerHint: secret". You could argue this is an abuse of the MIME hint since the copied text is not necessarily a password. But that's what KDE made available to prevent the copied text from being added to the clipboard history, so that's what Firefox used. Thus, this is intentional from Firefox's perspective. It would probably be clearer what's going on here if we made the clipboard history tell you that a secret was just copied, but won't be added to the clipboard. That's tracked with Bug 508326. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
