A fairly recent change and one I'm not sure is even noisy, but clicking a beaker on a pen gives a "X hits the pen with the beaker!" message (in red) in addition to the "You transfer 10 units to the pen." I didn't test to see if other people could see me suspiciously whacking a pen with a beaker repeatedly for obvious reasons.
Also there's been a couple mentorhelps about clipboards not being dropable, or getting stuck in backpacks/pockets.
Finally, something I just remembered: The MD apparently doesn't count as a Head anymore in the eyes of guardbuddies set to purge. If it's just the MD, I'd call this one a feature in the little passive-aggressive war the RD and MD have, but probably a bug if the buddies don't recognize any of the other heads. Couldn't test this one either for obvious reasons.

This sucks and is now at the top of my list.

I have fixed the sleepy pen thing but I can't work out the deal with the clipboard.
Some steps to reproduce would be real helpful.

spawn as any role that starts with a clipboard in your pocket, you simply cannot take it out at all. Have to undress to fix it.

this only happens with the new special jobs.
iirc the journalists have a clipboard in their pockets and you can't really take them out unless you take off your clothes to drop everything.

That helped!
This is fixed in the next build.
