Does ie10 support the ability to support copy and pasting an image. IE has the fileReader api which is nice, but it would be cool to have ability to paste a picture.

A good indicator that pasting images into IE10 is not possible, is the nice site http://pasteboard.co. The site tries really hard to allow pasting of images, however it fails for IE10.
For the sake of completeness:
In chrome/webkit you have to handle event
paste
and look intoevent.clipboardData
.In firefox you have to create a
<div/>
with attribute"contenteditable"
. See http://joelb.me/blog/2011/code-snippet-accessing-clipboard-images-with-javascript/

It seems that http://snag.gy/ supports copy and paste from clipboard of images in IE 10. At least it works for me. As soon as I change the mode to IE 8/9 it only works with a Java applet.
