+ Enable clipman as one of the startup apps for a kde like clipboard.

+ Make some nicer keybinds:
+ <ul>
+ <li>I like to change the app finder to "super+d" because the default "alt+f3" is too close to issues...</li>
+ <li>I like to bind the <code>xfce4-popup-whiskermenu</code> command to the super key to make it feel
+ more like other desktops</li>
+ <li>Bind "super+v" to <code>xfce4-clipman-history</code> to make it feel more like the kde clipboard</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Make new windows show up at the mouse by going into the "Window ManagerTweaks" "Placement" tab,
+ turning the minimum size all the way up and chaning the place windows position to under the mouse pointer.
