Can we pretty please get this? Not being able to cut & paste graphical content into posts catches me out constantly.

 

E.g. Open up MSpaint, copy, then paste into the post editor, or right click any image in Chrome, select "Copy image" and then paste it into the post.

I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup. Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

Short: No.

 

Long: Images stored as blob are part of the page and therefore cannot be cached. They don't compress well. What you are asking would allow people to paste large images - then get people complaining about "why is someone pasting a 10 MBytes screenshot that cannot be cached instead of a 300 Kbytes cacheable image?"
