Concept art.
DESCRIPTION
The Clipboard allows users to clean it without opening it by using the Context
Menu, however there is no visual indicator for an empty clipboard, which would
be useful in case you forgot if you cleaned or not.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a vague memory that you cleaned the Clipboard, but not when.
2. Verify if the clipboard is empty without interacting with it.
OBSERVED RESULT
It's impossible. You have to at minimum clean it with the Context Menu, which
requires two clicks and can develop a bad habit.
EXPECTED RESULT
A blank/unwritten clipboard icon would confirm if it is clean or not.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I was wondering what was the purpose of being able to clean the Clipboard with
the Context Menu, and I came to the conclusion it was for privacy reasons.
Just like the Wi-Fi icon, it could also use its five lines to represent each
copied line of text when they're a few.
