Bug Description

Steps
=====

Say the history is as follows:

item 3
item 2
item 1

Click on the Glipper systray icon and choose to clear history.

Actual result
=============

Click again on the systray icon. There's no longer any items displayed in the history, but we can still paste "item 3" with Ctrl+v.

Expected result
===============

Ctrl+v shouldn't paste anything. It can be a security issue when we copy a password, then clear history thinking we deleted the sensitive data.

More information
================

The problem is not about selection. There's no selection, and the Selection clipboard is unchecked on the preferences.

Also, I tested Parcellite and it doesn't have this bug.
