On further investigation, I was the one who marked it as a duplicate. Maybe I
was wrong on doing so.

Created attachment 120418
  --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=120418=edit
demonstration

Apologies for assigning you, I just was curious if you were interested in
investigating this issue further.

My bug was was marked as duplicate almost two years ago, it's a bit different
than that one.
Text gets copied and can be pasted, as long as source window is open. If it is
closed in the mean time then clipboard "loses focus", item is still in klipper
but there is nothing to paste.

Allow me to demonstrate.

Please do not assign bugs to other people.

It's not clear what the bug here actually is. The case specified in the
original bug works fine for me. In general, if closing the window clears the
copied text, then that means it was actually in the internal X11 clipboard
rather than in Klipper (this limitation in X11 is one of the reasons for
Klipper's existence). This would point to Klipper being misconfigured or not
running.

If anyone can reproduce the issue, please add a comment that includes detailed
Steps To Reproduce.

I believe that this bug should have higher priority under KDE "Usability &
Productivity" initiative. It may be confusing to new users, and it's a quirk
which requires "learning around".

Take such scenario for example:
User encounters a bug and wants to report it. He/she then proceeds to open up
kinfocenter to copy relevant system information, then after clicking "copy to
clipboard in english" he/she proceeds to close that window.
Next that person goes to his/her browser to paste what has been copied.
Surprise, it doesn't work, and assuming that this person is not using keyboard
shortcuts, "paste" item on right click context menu is greyed out.
At this point manual action of selecting relevant snippet from klipper is
needed.

Is this fixed? I have noticed this few times recently when copying a text from
http://buywebsitetrafficreviews.org/ and closing window.
