Drag and drop of credentials does not seem to work under Wayland

Question

Wayland is beginning to replace X11 as the default display protocol/server on Linux. Running 1Password under Wayland, today, required me to copy every sensitive credential to the clipboard (which I try to avoid), because I could not drag and drop any of them from 1Pass main & mini windows into other programs. I could not even drag a username into a plain text editor. Other programs didn't seem to have the same trouble, and could send and receive dragged text to each other, so I thought it must be 1Pass.

@1P_Dave Will that include drag and drop? Drag and drop of credentials does not seem to work under Wayland | 1Password Community. Copying passwords should be a last resort, given people have clipboard history and cross-device syncing.
