I circumvent that by right-clicking, then choosing "Inspect element", then switching to the tab "Console", then typing $0.value = "TheValueIWantToPaste". If right-clicking is also disabled, I use either F12 or Tools menu > DevTools.

Or just delete the "readonly" bit. I did that on Treasury Direct for years until they finally removed that nonsense.

Sometimes it's not "readonly", but a Javascript thing that "event.preventDefault()" and "return false" during the "onpaste" event. As the event is generally set using elm.addEventListener instead of setting elm.onpaste, it's not possible to remove the listener, as it'd need the reference for the handler function that was set to handle the mentioned JS event. So simply setting the value directly using elm.value bypasses the onpaste event.

That's fair, not sure why they'd go through that much effort when DOM attributes exist.

That sounds fun on mobile
