A suggested use case for the WebClipper that does not work currently, is the capturing of a text area within a form.
I often find myself penning a long submission to a forum post or other text input, and then thinking "I'd be really bummed if I lost this, I'd like to capture it before I submit". Unfortunately, the current WebClipper doesn't support this directly - clip selection doesn't work for text in a text input. Instead I find myslef manually copy-pasting it into a new note.
It may be a limitation of the extension's ability to read the DOM contents, but if not, I think it would be a valuable addition.
Attached is a simple mockup of what a right-click menu would look like.
