+1 who came to file the same feature request.

I wanted to emphasize the importance of such feature from the security
perspective. It's not some hypothetical threat. Recently, I've found out that
my Samsung Tablet keyboard maintains a clipboard history (which I didn't asked
for) where I was able to find a big list of my passwords (!) which I copied
from KeePassXC on the desktop in the past and which KDE Connect had been
carefully syncing. The clipboard history feature itself is insane, no doubt,
which I've disabled (which wasn't as straightforward as you would expect, it
required some hacks with adb (!!)), but less recklessness from KDE Connect is
much expected. Still, Samsung keyboard flashes your clipboard content if it's
not empty. Who knows which other apps does something nasty with your clipboard.

As far as I can see, this feature has already been implemented on Android
(which is much appreciated) but not on Linux.
