Description Gregor B. Rosenauer 2008-08-16 13:34:46 UTC
Version:           Unbekannt (using 4.1.00 (KDE 4.1.0), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-19-generic

Although there is a Klipper-action for e-mail addresses, it becomes less and less useful, as e-mail addresses are increasingly written in plain text or even obfuscated in order to prevent spam.
For the text-case, a regex should be included, e.g.:

 ^[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$ 

This is taken from the excellent site

It's a cool idea, but given the lack of movement for so long, I think this is unlikely to be implemented unless someone submits a merge request to do it. Accordingly, I'm going to close this request so that the list of requested features better reflects work in progress or under active consideration. This doesn't mean that the idea is being vetoed, just that there aren't resources to consider implementing it absent volunteer contributions to do so--for which no formal feature request is needed. Thanks for understanding!
