Bug Description

Pinta pinta-1.5-preview-20130518 on Windows XP:
1. Start Pinta. If already running then close down and start it again.
2. Press <Print Screen> button.
3. Press <CTRL>+<ALT>+V to paste clipboard content to new image.
4. Open some other program or something to get something else on screen.
5. Repeat step 2.
6. Repeat step 3. Now problem appears instead of pasting the image from step 5 there is pasted the image from step 2.

Now I did:
7. Open Microsoft Paint program and did a paste pressing the <CTRL>+V and new image is pasted from step 5.
8. Close down Pinta and start it again.
9. Repeat step 3. and correct image from step 5 is pasted. So it looks like Pinta is having troable to paste the lastest content from clipboard or it doesn't even paste the image from clipboard but instead of some internal Pinta's clipboard or something.

I installed previous pinta-1.5-preview-20130512 and this problem does not appear. So it looks like we are facing the regression with pinta-1.5-preview-20130518.

In my humble opinion this is serious bug and should be marked as High importance.

Have you tried this with Ctrl+V, or only Ctrl+Alt+V ? The only relevant change since the last development preview was https://github.com/PintaProject/Pinta/commit/a54124ba650ad50ee4029c5c5c90a17f3e7c3abd, which was only for pasting into a new image.

The same problem:
<CTRL>+<ALT>+V and
<CTRL>+V
in both cases new copied image is not pasted.

I tested this on Linux and can't reproduce it. I'll try to test on Windows later.

Retested on master on Windows XP and problem still appears, CTRL+ALT+V or CTRL+V still pastes the previous image. Work-around is to restart Pinta and then correct image (last from clipboard) image is pasted using CTRL+ALT+V or CTRL+V.
