paste HTML into org-mode as org-mode markup?

Is there a tool that will allow me to copy content from a web site (images, headings, links, and paragraph text) and paste that content into org-mode in proper org-mode markup (e.g. with the links and image URLs denoted in org-mode syntax) without going through the extra step of converting the HTML file separately?

Solution

This works for me:

(defun kdm/html2org-clipboard ()
  "Convert clipboard contents from HTML to Org and then paste (yank)."
  (interactive)
  (setq cmd "osascript -e 'the clipboard as \"HTML\"' | perl -ne 'print chr foreach unpack(\"C*\",pack(\"H*\",substr($_,11,-3)))' | pandoc -f html -t json | pandoc -f json -t org")
  (kill-new (shell-command-to-string cmd))
  (yank))
