@banderlog The other problem, the API is asynchronous. So even with Chrome it won’t work without major changes (or constantly polling).
This could be improved. It should get the event data and replace the selection. Ref vim.js#L395 If it can’t get data from the clipboard, fallback to current behaviour. It should also set the delete & last change registers.
The vim code is now being maintained at https://github.com/replit/codemirror-vim/ . If this is still important, check whether there is an issue open for it there.
