Is it possible to import local HTML docs with web clipper?

You can't add this permission as a user, unless you build the clipper yourself. We would have to change the web clipper's manifest file.

The question is, if Laurent wants to do that, because it would mean that the clipper can access local resources. I don't know, if Mozilla/Google would make it harder to approve the extension then.

However, as a workaround you could run a local web server.
