<p>Thanks, I wasn't aware of this.</p>
<p>It works well for mode QClipboard::Clipboard. In Klipper::applyClipChanges() these entries can be sorted out, so they aren't inserted into history.</p>
<p>But it doesn't work for QClipboard::Selection. As soon as there is some other mimeData present with unsupported type, the selection stays empty with the warning 'QClipboard: Cannot transfer data, no data available'.</p>
<p>This is run in Keepassx:</p>

QMimeData* mimeData = new QMimeData();
const QString secretHint = "secret";
QByteArray ba = secretHint.toUtf8();
mimeData->setText(text);
mimeData->setData("x-kde-passwordManagerHint", ba);
clipboard->setMimeData(mimeData, QClipboard::Clipboard); // this works
if (clipboard->supportsSelection()) {
clipboard->setMimeData(mimeData, QClipboard::Selection); // this not, warning: QClipboard: Cannot transfer data, no data available
