Every now and then Klipper in Plasma5 shows me two looks-like-broken-icon items that cannot be pasted anywhere (see screenshot).

There's no tooltip over them either.

Kai Uwe Broulik, who is also seeing it, reports that those items are not present while run in plasmoidviewer.

Adding sebas who worked on that code area.

Looks like it's caused by chrome, more details at https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=428646

I also see this..
Comment 4 Martin Flöser 2014-10-30 09:46:01 UTC
review request with a workaround: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/120901/
Comment 5 Stefan Becker 2015-05-05 08:35:16 UTC
Any updates on this? I see that the review for the workaround hasn't been completed.

I just updated to F22 beta with Plasma 5.3.0 and still see this issue. I can confirm that this is caused by pressing CTRL-C on a URL I marked in Chromium.
Comment 6 Martin Flöser 2015-05-05 08:59:25 UTC
it needs a fix in chromium - it's a chrome bug, not a clipboard bug.
Comment 7 Martin Klapetek 2015-05-05 09:53:59 UTC
It's however also party klipper's bug - I mean it should really check if the url is valid rather than blindly create an image from url. This then creates those two broken image boxes as seen in the original attachment. 

So, yeah, chromium is broken but we should be checking things on our side as well.

There's at least 3 places where this bug is being tracked (as far as I can tell). Unfortunately none of them seems to move forward.
