           Summary: Copy should be renamed to Clear Clipboard when no text
                    highlighted
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: chris.stone at gmail.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

The word "Copy" is misleading when there is no text highlighted on the konsole.
I think the menu option should be renamed to "Clear Clipboard" or something
similar, or else greyed out (which many other user interfaces do, such as this
textarea element in Mozilla Firefox.)

I would prefer "Clear Clipboard" because that is what it actually does, and
greying it out prevents me from clearing my clipboard with a right click which
I think would be innovative and cool.

Not to mention easy to implement (hopefully) ;-)

Okay, so what do you think about this idea?
