Drafting - Change CLIPBOARD_SIZE from Windows UI

Drafting 11.6 finally provides a way to print to the clipboard from the Windows UI Print form. You can set the Name: field in the Print form to MSWINDOW_EMF_CLIPBOARD (not the most obvious name) and the output goes to the clipboard from which it can be pasted into other applications. However, the form doesn't provide any way to change the clipboard size. In the Classic UI there is a button in the PLOT menu to do this. As far as I can tell, the only way to change it in the Windows UI is to enter the CLIPBOARD_SIZE command on the command line. Not very intuitive.

So the Enhancement request is:

Add a way to set the clipboard size in the Drafing Print form. Ideally some "type in" fields to set the X and Y size, but at least a button to run the CLIPBOARD_SIZE command so people don't have to remember this command.

Setting the clipboard size

And just to save any readers the trouble of trial and error:
CLIPBARD_SIZE's units are not in pixels, as I would expect, but in THE CURRENT UNITS. This misunderstanding gives interesting results when working in microns.
