Since update 29.0.x, following these directions:

no longer allows CKeditor based rich text editor cut/copy buttons/altclick menu options to operate with clipboard.

Tested with Windows 7/XP+FF29.0.1 and Ubuntu+FF29.0

Support for CAPS to enable the clipboard via user.js has been removed in Firefox 29, so this is no longer possible.

Any recommended approach? Is there some other working way to surpass these security restrictions? We've got a thousand users accustomed to a JS driven familiar looking Copy button, since FF 3.x or so.

As far as I were able to test, those addons would rather allow or impede sites from doing their script magic, but none seems to provide extra security piercings such as the one we're missing now.
