Another idea could be to add further emblems to the icons of copied/cut files. In the simplest case this could be the stock icons for copy/cut (usually a pair of documents/a pair of scissors). I’ve quickly created another mockup showing this (based on Daniel‘s above – sorry for hijacking the screenshot …).
Probably some design person will find ways to further improve this idea, e.g., by adding some striking background color to the little emblem. Unfortunately I have no idea how easy this would be to implement … maybe the existing emblem infrastructure could be used for this?
