Years ago, I suggested change clipboard icon to scissors. I was surprised, you
took my suggestion. The reason was at the time I put launchers on panel, often
KATE or KWrite next to system tray, and I'd get confused which was text edit
or clipboard. Sometimes when KDE4 and P5 load a certain way, I still see the
old clipboard icon. In theory someone could be in that confusing situation,
but personally, I've had more stuff in my system tray for years, so I don't
have that situation anymore. Maybe the change was still good, or maybe people
should have an option? I'd guess the majority of people would think of a
clipboard before scissors, since you don't always 'cut & paste,' also 'copy &
paste'... even I do, and of course, when you cut paper, you might put it on a
clipboard. Currently, I'd be okay with either icon, but I thought, maybe you
took my suggestion too far, if most people would at least want a choice (and
most don't have the problem I had?)
