Hi.

It seems that remmina activates clipboard sync per default

As clipboard sync is very security critical (any sensitive content
from the root password to your private key might be in the clip
boad) this should NEVER be done automatically...

Actually, one should even warn users from the consequences of
activating it.


Cheers,
Chris.
