I can confirm this. When I play with `wl-paste -l` and `wl-paste -t
mimetype`, it seems that gnome-terminal offers 'text/html' mimetype, but
it's empty. The html tags are actually present in the 'text/plain' content.
When I copy something into the clipboard in Firefox, it correctly populates
both 'text/html' and 'text/plain' with appropriate content. So I think
the
problem is in gnome-terminal. Can you please report a problem here?
