Here's a shot at the icon for edit-duplicate. I've gone for the simplest step 
from our existing icon desing, using a + rather than an arrow to indicate 
duplication rather than movement. An alternative if you want something more 
distinct could be two overlapping rectangles, one with a + sign in, but that 
would be different to the current visual language:

<<inline: edit-duplicate.svg>>


For the clipboard icon I have been thinking we might want to stay with the 
toolbar-edit scissors icon to reinforce the idea of the Activity Edit toolbar 
where copy and paste access is the common use case. Here's a quick mockup of 
what the scissors might look like in the palette:

I have a half finished simplified clipboard silhouette I could complete if 
folks don't like the idea of re-using the scissors (a clipboard shape also 
allows for using user fill/stroke colour, though I don't think that is 
essential here).

Manuel, you mentioned in the design meeting you had some ideas for a clipboard 
icon, did you make any progress or have some suggestions?
