Description

Right now we only allow for loading in a profile by file:

It would be nice to have a button that say something like "Load existing profile" that when clicks loads a dropdown with the option to:

  • Load from URL (supported in the code, but not surfaced in the UI)
  • Load from File (already existing feature)
  • Load from Clipboard (new feature)

Research direction
Locate the home screen component and add buttons for 'Load from URL' and 'Load from Clipboard'. Implement the clipboard import functionality using the browser's Clipboard API.
