Certainly it would be great to provide some default value allowing user 
to override it. However it may be not so trivial. Clipboard content may 
be just copy region from some graphics editor or a screenshot tool, so 
not associated with a file yet. In X11 xprop may be used to get 
clipboard owner application and its title. Wayland may be less permissive.

I have tried to copy an image in Firefox. There is a chance to find file 
name (it may be image.php?id=1324 though) in text/html clipboard 
content, but it requires parsing of HTML

xclip -selection clipboard -o -t text/html
