I don't think that would count as a feature, and it isn't one. It's
basically a program every system should have (in my opinion).
The Gnome clipboard isn't working great. I often get complaints from new
users I introduce to Fedora that their clipboard content was lost when
they closed Firefox, or something similar. And it's true, I don't trust
the default Gnome Copy&Paste to keep anything in it when I'm not running
a clipboard manager and don't close any apps "just in case".
It would be really nice to have a clipboard manager by default on the
Live CD (GNOME and XFCE, KDE already has klipper).
When I look in the repos for available clipboard managers, I see
glipper, parcellite and the XFCE plugin (xfce4-clipman-plugin).
glipper is 111 k, and parcellite is 114, so it shouldn't be a difference
of size. I personally would recommend parcellite, because it's pretty
lightweight and works good (and I use it myself :D).
What do you think about that?
I think this would improve the user experience and add functionality to
the desktop.
