If the source application doesn't exist anymore, how would you expect it to
send data.

The clipboard list is klipper, our clipboard manager that keeps clipboard
values cached for this kind of use case.

It is a quite tricky issue to solve.
We could make it so that the application stays open until an application has
received the data, that isn't klipper.
Or the notification should copy the data itself to make it available, and
remove it afterwards.
Or the notification could fetch the data from klipper somehow, if klipper
cached the value.

Please not, under wayland the -b command line is not supported, code needs some
adaptation, you will have strange behavior for now.
