Specification
https://w3c.github.io/input-events/#dom-inputevent-datatransfer


Summary
Populate the dataTransfer property on input events with inputType of 
insertFromPaste, insertFromDrop, and insertReplacementText to provide access to 
clipboard and drag-drop data during editing operations in contenteditable 
elements. The dataTransfer object contains the same data that was available 
during the beforeinput event. This feature only applies to contenteditable 
elements. For form controls (textarea, input), the behavior remains unchanged - 
the data property contains the inserted text and dataTransfer remains null. 
Both Safari and Firefox already support this functionality. Chromium adopting 
this feature will enhance interoperability across browsers, providing a more 
consistent experience for web authors.
