This is actually working by design. With 4.7.0 release we decided to finally drop our good old Paste dialog to simplify pasting process as much as possible.

Ideally we'd like the browser to just paste and that's it - however, due the security reasons, modern browsers do not expose any means to paste other than using native ways, so:

Platform specific hotkey ctrl/cmd + v
Native context menu

Will trigger paste, but the website can not initiate it on it's own.

The exception here would be Internet Explorer family, as it supports triggering paste command which we use.

So in short this is as close as it gets, and we're unable to push it further. As soon as browser provides APIs for us to trigger the paste, we're happy to utilize that.

Daher bitte beachten und nicht wundern, wenn es entsprechende Rückmeldung seitens der Anwender gibt ;)
