Cannot enable middle-click paste

Project Member Reported by jkarcz@google.com, Sep 10 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 10718.88.2) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.118 Safari/537.36
Platform: 10718.88.2 (Official Build) stable-channel eve

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Select some text
2. Middle click into a text entry box

What is the expected behavior?
The selected text is pasted where the middle click occurred.

What went wrong?
No pasting, and I can find no option to enable this behavior.

Did this work before? N/A

This feature is essential to my workflow.

Zach, can you confirm we expect/intend middle click on ChromeOS to paste?

I don't believe this has ever been supported on Chrome OS.

Then it sounds like this is a Feature Request for Chrome OS rather than a bug in datatransfer (the blink plumbing for copy/paste and drag/drop web APIs).

What's the best component for this?
