Ideally, the clipboard should only be cleared if the Clipboard object is "dirty". This also makes WebKit behavior consistent with IE and Firefox. 614014 1 rniwa 2012-05-01 23:12:25 -0700 Is this still the case? 623533 2 dcheng 2012-05-14 18:12:53 -0700 This isn't a problem for Chromium since it clears the clipboard a different way. It still affects the other ports though.
