That's primarily the reason, along with what if you have a large amount
of text that you don't want anymore? Clearing it I guess frees memory as
well.

Just out of interest, why would you need to empty the clipboard?
I can understand this as a security measure, that is preventing other people
seeing what you have just copied to the clipboard, but wonder why else it
might be useful?

Good tip. I do this as well, or I'll just select all even if the text is
empty and hit control C. I think that should work as well.

Hello all.
Got a tip for you. Want to quickly empty your clipboard? No problem. In
any text field, type a space, select it, and copy. I do this all the time
from the run dialogue box but it will work anywhere you can write text.
Hope this is useful.
