The official Obsidian Web Clipper is *almost* exactly what I need, but is a narrow miss.
Up until now I've used Markdownload and then copied the resulting files into Obsidian, which is more clunky than the new clipper, but it has one important feature: it downloads images. I clip articles not only to help me find them again, but also to protect against web rot, but the official clipper links to web versions of the images. I don't trust those not to randomly go away.
@elFlashor Ah yes, Local Images Plus works great to fix this up, thanks for the recommendation
