The current implementation of the cross-browser clipboard relies heavily on an API that is currently only available on Chromium based browsers (see table).
There is currently no definitive announce that the feature will be adopted by other browsers (namely FF and Safari) and since the feature is still marked as experimental, it'd be better to rely on a more generic approach.

text/html
mimetype as it is supported by all modern browsers.Task: 4241877
