Comment:

 Replying to [comment:6 Eben]:
 > I've attached a first pass at the clippings.  There are 6 "primitive
 types" for which icons are specified:
 >
 >  - image
 >  - video
 >  - audio
 >  - text
 >  - url
 >  - data
 >
 > Data is, of course, the most generic and may be used for any type of
 clipping whose type is otherwise not covered by the primitives.  The SVGs
 have the proper entities, so they should be ready to go.  We may change a
 few of these in the future (in particular, we're unhappy with using a non-
 universal music note for the audio file...), but this should get the
 system working.

 Done

 > We'd also like to recommend an addition (unless this already exists, I'm
 not sure) to the clipboard API which allows activities to provide custom
 icons for clippings as they are created.  This goes hand in hand with our
 treatment of objects within the interface and within the Journal.  Many
 activities will have "sub-activity" objects which are still formally
 defined and should have an associated icon separate from the icon for the
 activity itself.  We want to embrace this idea and adding support for
 providing icons for custom types is a step in the right direction.

 This is #2458
