I have "Ignore images" checked. I don't know if this option is intended to serve as an option to ignore all files (in which case this should be changed into a bug)

Copying/cutting files in Dolphin loads the files in Klipper. Since files are usually larger in number than text, Klipper ends up filled with files pushing actual copied text out. Plus the thumbnails for the items make the menu larger

Reproducible: Always

"Ignore Images" appears to be broken at the moment. Reported here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348932

Fully concur with the option to ignore all file operations, file copying invariably is a one off, I never have understood why they are placed on the clipboard :)

Also, the thumbnails are of not much use... truncated file name means even if one wanted to 're-use' a clipboard entry there is no guarantee (unless the file name is *very* short) you have selected the correct clipboard entry.
