* The Sugar clipboard supports multiple clippings at once, which is fantastically useful, assuming you can tell them apart. Right now, you cannot. A primary goal of the next major update to the clipboard is to expose the identities of clippings, including support for activity supplied titles, colors, icons, and previews. The first order goal is to define an API to make this possible.
* Allow activities to supply a title along a clipping. '''(tomeu)'''

* Display a preview of the clipping in the palette. '''(tomeu)'''
* Display the colors of the activity that provided the clipping. '''(tomeu)'''
* Calculate good fallbacks for activities that fail to provide any of the above items. '''(tomeu)'''
* We really need to support a direct "paste" action on clipping items, which poses an implementation challenge. It's important, however, to make this action work in our "object oriented" environment.

* The clipboard should support drag'n'drop reordering of clippings, both to make a series of paste-and-removes occur in a desired order, and to allow one to move clippings back to the top, so they don't fall off the bottom as more are made.
