[Bug 11334] Re: Copy-Paste doesn't work if the source is closed before the paste

[Andreas Lloyd]

Ubuntu QA guy Simon Law puts it like this:

"Thank you for your report.

This behaviour has always been the case and is a design feature of X11.

You are describing SELECTION and PRIMARY buffers. They were separate and
have semantics that are both supported by major X applications. It is
unlikely that this will change in the near future, even though more and
more applications prefer exposing the PRIMARY buffer in their menu
systems."
