Ctrl+X should cut the selected text to the clipboard

[jgcodes2020]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues.

Is this issue related to iced?

• My hardware is compatible and my graphics drivers are up-to-date.

What happened?

This issue is similar to #2153. Try pressing Ctrl + X.

use iced::{Settings, Sandbox, window};
use iced::widget::{text_editor, container};

fn main() -> iced::Result {
    App::run(Settings {
        window: window::Settings {
            size: (640, 480),
            ..Default::default()
        },
        ..Default::default()
    })?;
    
    Ok(())
}

struct App {
    content: text_editor::Content,
}

#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
enum AppMessage {
    Edit(text_editor::Action)
}


impl Sandbox for App {
    type Message = AppMessage;

    fn new() -> Self {
        Self {
            content: text_editor::Content::new()
        }
    }

    fn title(&self) -> String {
        String::from("example")
    }

    fn update(&mut self, message: Self::Message) {
        match message {
            AppMessage::Edit(action) => {
                self.content.perform(action);
            },
        }
    }

    fn view(&self) -> iced::Element<'_, Self::Message> {
        let edit_box = text_editor(&self.content).on_action(AppMessage::Edit);
        
        container(edit_box).padding(10).into()
    }
}

What is the expected behavior?

Ctrl + X should cut text to the clipboard. It does nothing right now.

Hey there, have you considered to add a subscription to the keyboard event?
When the key combination is recognized you can copy the text into the clipboard and than reset the content.

I've implemented a similar feature, but with the images, inside my project using also additional crates to handle the clipboard.
