Windows only.

getData/clearData/setData are only implemented for drag.  There is a fixme in ClipboardWin.cpp: 
//FIXME: Need to be able to write to the system clipboard <rdar://problem/5015941>

I didn't see a bugs.webkit.org bug filed on this, although this is clearly a known bug since there is a rdar bug.

Updated: getData does work for copy since it is just a read.  The functions that do writes (clearData, setData) are unimplemented for !dragging.
