Yes, but what's the catch?

If Apple announced such a thing I'd actually be more excited. They've shown a track-record to deliver, even if it meant being behind a walled-garden and delayed features. MS has only proven themselves to be a dinosaur, delivering half-thought and half-ased products. Case in point: Windows CE, Windows Vista, Windows Phone 7, 7.5, 8.0, 8.1, Windows RT, and Windows 8.0 and 8.1.

If Apple announced such a thing, that would mean that it had been commonplace for at least three years without much fuss, waiting for Apple to come along with a big fanfare and take all the credit.

BUT was it not Apple who invented the copy&paste on phones? ;)

Is that why it does not work on a Jolla? For the fear of being sued by Apple? ;)

You heard it here first! Well... probably not but Android M code name: Macadamia Nut Cookie!

There was a commit in the AOSP with a note asking for change in mnc-dev branch.

MNC could be code for the next Android version, and hence Macadamia Nut Cookie would fit.
Though Google's done this before and actually changed the project's nickname, fooling everyone.
I wouldn't be surprised if it happened again. Though I doubt they'll do another promotional one like with Nestle's Kit Kat brand, so M&Ms is out of the picture.

To summarize possible codenames:
- Macadamia Nut Cookie
- Marshmallow
- Muffin
- Mooncake
- Mint Cookie
- Mocha Mousse/Trifle
- Mango Sorbet/Pudding
- Maple Syrup (Maple also a dig at Apple)

I personally believe "Marshmallow" is the most likely one considering the previous Jelly Bean, Kit Kat, and Lollipop monikers. They're not only all desserts, but they're all junk food.
