New The bug I want to file...
...is "Would any developer who thinks wobbly windows are more important than a functional clipboard please shoot themselves in the face immediately".

Whilst an effective solution to a real problem, I highly suspect that the GNOME developer takeup of this particular issue may be lower than one would expect for a bug of this magnitude.

Use P2P for legitimate purposes!
New So what *is* the bug?
Is it malfunctioning, or are you just referring to the fact that it's not pervasively useful throughout the desktop?

New Re: So what *is* the bug?
Example: Cut something to the clipboard in Firefox.

Close Firefox.

Try to paste into a GNOME application.

Ta-DA! Look ma! No data!

That's the bug.

Lather, rinse and repeat for GNOME/KDE pasting, too. Although there are moves afoot to develop a common clipboard, the movers and shakers (of which the aforementioned Mr Nickell is one) are apparently easily distracted by shiny things.
