Bug description:
  I have already created a few upstream reports for this but since
  nearly every application on my system (Ubuntu 15.04) is affected by
  this issue and I'm getting tired of opening this many upstream reports
  I'm creating this collecting ticket.

  To the issue: Commonly at least one of this happens if the related
  context menu (commonly in the menu bar -> Edit or with a right mouse
  click on a related field) gets opened:

  - Cut/Copy are active while nothing is selected.
  - Paste is active while nothing is in the clipboard.
  - "Select All" is active while the related field is empty.

  Here are the upstream reports which I have already created:

  LibreOffice: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91107
  SciTE: http://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/1718/
  GIMP: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749002
