Feature Request
The XDG Desktop Portal is missing clipboard support, meaning that we cannot copy and paste between a Deskflow server or client running on Wayland.
Part of the work needs to be done in XDG Desktop Portal, but also needs to be done in the Mutter and KWin compositors. Other compositors are beyond the scope of this issue (but this does not limit someone attempting implementation).
Maintainers & bounty: This issue and related bounty represents the entire work (including work to be done outside of this repo) so that a bounty can be created. Do not close as "not our bug".
Wip PR
we have much of this staged but are waiting on libportal to land the needed pr so we can finalize our impl

Note
Flatpaks are also effected by this as they must talk via the portal system to the host.
Where's the bounty?
We decided to remove the bounty from this PR as it was attracting only low-effort untested AI-generated PRs. We are still interested in sponsoring this PR. See: Funding
