    Description

      Especially with damLinkField and external providers it gets tricky to be able copy the link values.
      The fields hold Asset objects and even with textInputAllowed, user would see only the (jcr:UUID) pattern.

      The idea is to implement a clipboard

      A] Buttons on the link field
      might requires complex UX patterns
      button should update enabled status based on status of the clipboard (requires a reactive observable context, all fields immediately reacts on copy in an other field, )
      easy to spot and understand

      B] CTRL/META+C, CTRL/META+V shortcuts
      minimal UX design
      as the shortcut listens to whole form, the implementation would work for other fields as well (combo, radio...)
      requires significant docu, as the presence of the feature is not obvious

      C] Context menu in the link field
      minimal UX design
      requires docu, as the presence of the feature is not obvious
