> There are apps that have different behavior whether or not there is text in the clipboard (e.g. enabling a "paste" button)

People keep saying this but I've never seen one of these app-specific paste widgets. And even if I did, I wouldn't miss it in the slightest for the sake of not allowing every app to be reading my clipboard at all times.

It's inexcusable to me that there isn't a permissions prompt for this. Two of my most common types copy-pasted strings are URLs and passwords.
