I can attest to this, because I just (not ten minutes ago) lost a paper. I cut the text out of the document, closed it, and tried to paste it into another open document and it was gone. Where is the libreoffice clipboard at?

Problem Case: 1) Select and copy some text in LibreOffice Writer 2) Close LibreOffice (and any other instances that may be running) 3) launch Text Editor and try to paste. Expected outcome: The copied text should appear in Text Editor. Actual outcome: The 'Paste' option is greyed out in the menu and it is not possible to paste. My data is lost. This might be best reported upstream but I'm not sure if the clipboard 'system' in Ubuntu is to blame or not. Here is the upstream report I've made.
