Node Editors : Copy Paste between tabs

It would be nice to be able to copy and paste between several windows/tabs with NME.
I have some bookmarked NMEs for several purposes :

  • Basic PBR structure
  • NormalMap generation
  • Instance inputs and with instanceBuffer for per-instance Material variation
  • Etc…

It would save so much time to just be able to copy on one tab, paste on the other.
I didn’t check the source code, but since copy-paste already works within the same session, it means the “copy” and “paste” function are already written. Only remaining would be to write the inbetween data in the localStorage so that we can paste in the other tab (since it’s the same domain name, localStorage is shared between all NME tabs)
