The hyperbole this issue creates is fascinating.

First, I agree that the clipboard being so forgetful after an app closes is
an issue.
But some people here make it sound like it's comparable to critical security
issues, or major features missing.

It's not of the highest priority because there really are much higher
priorities. I really believe most people prefer speed and hardware support
and reducing reggressions as high priority issues.

And anybody switching to Mac or back to Windows and expecting 0 issues is up
for a rude awakening. All platforms have their silly issues. I get annoyed
every time my mousescroll doesn't scroll an underlying control - which
happens a lot on Windows - and never on Gnome, where the window doesn't even
have to have focus for the scroll to work.
And I recently did some tech support for a Mac user where not only where
some speed and file sharing issues - but it was easy - googling - to find
many other Mac users having the same problem. And don't get me started on
Apple clinging to the fantasy that 1 mouse button is enough.

But if having to paste first and close the first app later is too much
effort and this really is a fatal issue in anybodies opinion - then - yes -
pick a platform where the issues are a better fit for your preferences. None
of them is perfect. Pick whatever hurts you least.
