If you keep the shelf and clipboard windows docked to the border of the screen all the time, you wouldn't. But if you keep them somewhere in the middle of the screen and just call them up with the shortcuts as needed, they would pop up at seemingly random times. For me, it was mostly when I was closing applications, but also at other times. And then you would have to move the mouse over them for a while and then away again to make the windows disappear again. Really annoying.
