I was simply illustrating a method to reproduce the issue.

Ok, but should the basic behavior of clipman (persistent clipboard) not be the
default behavior of a desktop environment? I can understand performance reasons
(garbage collection) for removing an application's clipboard contents from RAM,
but I would expect something that I placed in the clipboard to be there until I 

1). Logout
2). halt/reboot the machine
3). Replace it with something else. 

Is xorg setup so that each application has its own clipboard? Why should
cut/copy be different than the highlight-to-copy behavior of xorg (which IS
persistent).
