Currently the clipboard service creates a temporary invisible textarea from which to copy the text into the clipboard, however since it only has opacity: 0, it has the potential of changing the layout in a noticeable way if it is present for longer.

These changes add some extra styles to avoid changing the layout. I also did some small cleanup to make it a bit more robust.

LGTM

// absolute position so the page layout isn't affected.
styles.opacity = '0';
styles.position = 'absolute';
styles.left = styles.top = '-999em';

No particular reason. I just wanted to make sure that it's off-screen so I put in something that is guaranteed to be large.
