Since this is a constant, I'd be inclined to move it out of the function and
call it TEXT_TYPE. You could even make it a single-element enum to make it clear
how it would be extended.

+  for (var i = 0; i < clipboardData.types.length; i++) {
+    var type = clipboardData.types[i];
+    if (type == textType) {
+      var item = clipboardData.getData(type);
+      if (!item) {
+        item = "";
+      }
+      if (item != this.recentItemText) {
+        // TODO(simonmorris): Pass the clipboard text item to the plugin.
+        this.recentItemText = item;
+      }
+    }
+  }
+};
+
+/** @type {remoting.Clipboard} */
+remoting.clipboard = null;
