Description

When I connect to a remote server in Windows (mstsc.exe) I would like the possibility to copy a file and just past it in fman. ctrl + v only seems to work when ctrl + c was invoked in fman itself.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the behavior with Windows mstsc.exe: copy a file in the remote desktop, focus fman, and press Ctrl+V. No source file or test is identified in the issue, so trace fman's clipboard and paste entry points first; done means a remotely copied file can be pasted into fman.
