I just came here to log this too. I find it mildly frustrating having to switch from keypad to mouse to clear the calculator (or to hold down the backspace for an extended period of time).

Escape to clear seems to be the convention in most other calculator applications, and it's absence is an annoyance to me, so I believe it should be the convention in Pantheon Calculator also.

I've posted a bounty to encourage the change:
