I meant that for the Share option. I though about how convenient it would be to
replace Clipboard by Share.
I, for example, regularly use the clipboard sharing for URLs, which currently
involves theses steps:
1. Long click on Android on the URL.
2. Press copy.
3. Press "PP" in qutebrowser.
Using sharing in the current form would involve:
1. Long click on Android on the URL.
2. Press Share.
3. Select KDE Connect.
4. Mark the text in KWrite.
5. Press Ctrl-C / Rightclick->Copy.
6. Press "PP" in qutebrowser.

Yes, Gwenview (most KDE programs) opens URLs directly, if the type is suitable.
For example, clicking on a picture link in KMail opens Gwenview, since KDE has
some autodetection to what MIME type the URL points. Maybe sharing with KDE
Connect does exactly this yet (I have not tried it): Open the best program
suitable, in case of text this would be KWrite.

AFAIK, this option does not exist and since this is Android core functionality,
it is not something that KDE (Connect) can change.
