I like beautiful girls. I believe in an open future, where open
relationships are the best and I can have sex with every girl I see,
without her boyfriend wanting to shoot me.

What do my perfect future and your perfect future have in common?
They're both never going to happen. Open source has no future and open
source will never be the best.

"For the most part, this has been fixed. Only a few applications are still
listed, and I would not be surprised if they are fixed as well. I don't use
them to check."

No, only a few applications actually do work. Most application don't
work and will never work. Do you now how many applications are available
in Ubuntu Software Centre? Install all of them, every single application
and start testing all of them. Then there are applications which aren't
even available in Ubuntu Software Centre. Start testing those
applications too. A clipboard should work for EVERY application, not
just a part of the applications which are installed by default.

That's why it shouldn't be fixed on a per-app basis, but it should be
fixed in the core. That's how it works in other operating systems and
that's how it belongs to work. In Mac OS X and Windows you can install
every application you want and it doesn't matter where the application
comes from, it just works, without the developer of the application
having to think about implementing a clipboard. That's how it should
work!

You can expect from all developers to implement a clipboard. That's why
only a few application for Linux have the clipboard implemented. Just
search for replies from a person called pyrates in this bug report. He
knows what he's talking about. He's one the few who knows how it should
be implemented and who's able to explain why the current implementation
is so bad and completely wrong.

"Or one could install a clipboard manager... your "only" solution isn't really 
the only solution."

Clipboard managers don't work properly. They crash and don't support
everything which can be copied (they only support text or text and
files, but it should support everything: text, files, images, parts of
an audio file, parts cut from a movie). Most of them aren't updated
anymore. The developer started its project five years ago, never
finished it. It's designed for a five years old Linux distribution and
it haven't been updated ever since. No one is maintaing those clipboard
managers, so you just can't rely on them.

An operating should have a proper working clipboard of its own. You just
install the operating system and then install whatever application you
like and it should just work, without the need of installing a clipboard
manager, without the need to keep the source window open and without
developers having to implement a clipboard in their applications. That's
something you open source idiots just don't understand... correction:
don't want to understand.
