Does not look like Chrome will change its behavior anytime soon. The only hope is to have UR update its editor to recognize HTML natively just like Word or OneNote. It will be a nice Christmas gift

If it exposed the data types you want, it would cause script authors to start writing code with platform-specific strings in (event.clipboardData.getData('com.apple.iWork.TSPD escription')) and this would have several negative consequences:
