Allow for copying the compressed image

[gBasil]

When using Squoosh, I usually end up just downloading the image, copying and pasting it somewhere in the browser, and then deleting the file. It would be a lot nicer if it would be possible to just copy the compressed image in order to avoid that song and dance.

You can right click -> copy image

However, keep in mind that image clipboards in most OSes will copy the bitmap, not the compressed binary data. So while you will get resizing applied and will get the compression artifacts, you won’t get the compression benefits wrt file size.

Ah, that's unfortunate. 😅 I was more thinking about an event handler for ctrl+c that would write the fully compressed file to the clipboard.

@surma is it only the right-click "copy image" suffering from this issue, or also an eventual "copy" button implemented alongside the download one?
