(Get the code!)
Remember "The clipboard contains a huge object, do you want to leave it?" message box when MS Office is closed?
Why not to do the same?!
If clipping text is not that big, then copy to "system buffer" w/o confirmation. If it's quite big (10/100/1000 Mb) - then ask.
The other workaround is to insert a special program (glipper or anything else) into a basic distribution.
This issue really affects me too, and I bump in it not only when source window is closed, but also when it's suspended (by "kill -SIGSTOP" or "Ctrl-Z")
