Shexli found 3 issues that may need reviewer attention.

EGO-A-005 manual_review

extensions should not access the clipboard directly

Direct clipboard access via `St.Clipboard.get_default()` requires reviewer scrutiny.

EGO-L-002 warning

objects created by extension should be destroyed in disable()

Objects assigned in `enable()` are missing matching `.destroy()` calls in `disable()` or its helper methods.

extension.js:35

this._entry = new St.Entry({ hintText: '...', canFocus: true, width: QR_CODE_SIZE })

EGO-L-005 warning

owned object references should be released in disable()

Owned references that are cleaned up in `disable()` should also be released with `null` or `undefined`.

extension.js:35

this._entry = new St.Entry({ hintText: '...', canFocus: true, width: QR_CODE_SIZE })
