If the clacker thing you speak is the same "clicker" nuns used
in elementary school, yes it's been done, but not at a funeral,
merely to get the students to stand and sit,etc.
I'd not want them at my funeral, tho' preferable to hired
mourners, too many bad experiences with the nunny poos.

Not exactly an applause but certainly a vivid celebration. Oh my!- even when dead that would make me very seasick.

As a brass player, this strikes me as just right.
