@mysk why is it a relevant to apps how many time something was cut or copied to the clipboard since the device was setup? What is a legit use case?

@ozu It seems to be an ancient public API. Perhaps it signals to apps that the content of the clipboard has changed without retrieving the content of the clipboard to inspect it.
