  [Regression Potential]
  
  Screenshot/clipboard fix should have low regression potential as fix
  mostly moves clipboard out to separate process. Without fix whole
  process can deadlock... Worst thing that could happen might be missing
- clipboard and/or screenshot functionally. Even in such case that is
+ clipboard and/or screenshot functionality. Even in such case that is
  better than having whole process deadlocked losing other functionality.
  
  Screensaver already has serious problem - inability to get back to
  desktop. I can not imagine any regression that would be worse then
  current situation.
  
  Fix/improvement to desktop icon renaming with keybinding should not case
  any functional regression. It is small change that adds extra key
- handling to allow initiate desktop icon rename with keyboard shortcut.
