Cannot paste image into Outlook.com

Question

There's a bug in Outlook.com when composing a message which arises when pasting an image, but it does not work.  There a very specific condition which I have identified. The bug occurs when pasting an image that is overload with text. Therefore the clipboard contains a text and an image. This can occur with lots of applications.  Outlook.com will default to take the text instead of the image.  If that text is spaces or blanks, and then nothing looks like it's being pasted.

Aside, there is a 2nd situation in which this occurs, if you have a local webpage (my.html) viewed in browser and select text and image, the image will not paste into Outlook.com email. The text will appear and an outline of the image.  This actually paste is an HTML fragment, however if the image will not transfer even if specified as absolute file path c:\image.jpg or file:///c:\image.jpg in the src tag.  

To test this:

You can overload a clipboard using this example - http://metadataconsulting.blogspot.com/2020/08/CSharp-dotNET-How-to-overload-clipboard-to-handle-multiple-formats-simultaneously.html and view the clipboard using this https://www.codeproject.com/articles/886711/drag-drop-images-and-drop-descriptions-for-mfc-app to check for overload. Please fix. 

The default in Gmail pastes an image and works with this overload of text and image on clipboard. No issues, and using same browser. Using Edge V84.0.522.63.
