Maybe you can reimplement the Clipboard of aplication to ignore these imagens (removing them of plain text).
But also, you can reimplement the paste action of QTextBrowser class and remove these image of plaintext.

@dscyw
reimplement createMimeDataFromSelection()
Either you recreate the whole mime-data yourself or you call the base-class implementation and remove the <img> elements from the text/html data.

Actually you can also completely create your own mime-type and store anything you like in there. Then reimplement insertFromMimeData() and handle your custom mime-type.

@KillerSmath @raven-worx Thanks. I will try it and post the result later. I think it's a non-trivial task.
