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

[JohnWashington]

@Fred: yes, you're right, on Lubuntu I installed Parcellite and it
worked fine.  But, with respect, which clipboard manager to use is not
the point.  The point is that Ubuntu and its relatives should be
providing this functionality out of the box, not requiring users to
figure out what's needed themselves or requiring 100's of applications
all to implement functionality independently.

Perhaps some would say that this would add bloat to Ubuntu.  Well, that
would hardly be a first.  One doesn't use Ubuntu if something really
stripped down and minimal is called for, that niche is filled by plenty
of other distros, not least being Debian.

300+ comments and still no real progress.  What does it need to get
clipboard managers included in Ubuntu?  Not 'available' for the few who
know, but 'included' so that everyone benefits, even the absolute
beginners trying Linux for the first time?
