Comment:

 We want to keep the distinction between objects and clippings, which can
 be "whole objects" in the technical sense, but won't actually represent an
 actual activity instance as saved in the Journal or elsewhere.

 Thus, when an entire activity object (Read, Write, Draw, Browse, whatever)
 gets copied at once - via drag and drop or the copy button inside the
 Journal - the icon for the associated activity should appear.  When a
 selection of text image, combination thereof, or other data is made, a
 clipping icon should appear.  The clipping icon will be more generic, and
 not directly associated with any activity.  We may simply distinguish
 between text, image, and other or something.  I'll try to get together a
 set of icons for this purpose.

 If anyone has some specific recommendations for the standard set of
 clippings based on MIME types, please attach some info on this ticket.
