When LibreOffice is running, I can copy text and paste it to another application, eg gEdit.

Problem Case:
1) Select and copy some text in LibreOffice Writer
2) Close LibreOffice (and any other instances that may be running)
3) launch Text Editor and try to paste.

Expected outcome: The copied text should appear in Text Editor.
Actual outcome: The 'Paste' option is greyed out in the menu and it is not possible to paste. My data is lost.

This might be best reported upstream but I'm not sure if the clipboard 'system' in Ubuntu is to blame or not. Here is the upstream report I've made.

Off-topic: I just put 12.04 on my girlfriends laptop and she is very unhappy to have lost 900 words of a critique this way.
