   > There is a [bug mentioned in the 
code](https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4818143). That was 
supposed to be fixed in Java 6. So let's hope this would not cause any harm.
   
   I'm not so sure. The "resolved" status for the mentioned JDK bug is from 
2005, but the workaround that is removed in this PR dates back to 2014. We 
don't have any indication that the problem that was worked around in 2014 was 
solved in JDK after that.
   
   So this patch might risk introducing the 2014 bug.
   
   But I can still try it in my working IDE, and see if the newer clipboard bug 
reappears. If it does, even once, then at least we can eliminate this 
particular piece of code as the culprit.
