Public bug reported:

It seems developers make things harder for users while trying to make things 
over simplified.

Because of broken (disappearing) clipboard in GNOME, we need to
installing glipper.

When user tries to run command "glipper", no such command.
More educated user opens Add Applet to Panel, and searches for glipper - types 
"glipper" in search field.. and nothing.

What is going on?

Ah, here it is, hidding from users under name that does not include word
"glipper". Supposedly more user-friendly name "clipboard something", but
it confuses users that understand that they installed "glipper".

Solution: always show application name, package name in Add To Applet.
Also similar problem exists for programs in menu, btw
