New dialog with Preset can't get rid of Clipboard default option

[grofaty]

Pinta dev 1.6.0.110 on Ubuntu 14.04.

1. Start Pinta e.g. from terminal: mono Pinta.exe
2. New image 800 x 600.
3. Mark some selection on canvas and Cut from toolbar.
4. New image icon and in Preset is now selected as Clipboard (don't know if this works like designed - I just "hate" this Clipboard option), select 800 x 600 and OK button.
5. Repeat step 3. It looks like you can't get rid of this "Clipboard" option. In this case I expect to have 800 x 600 preset, because this was the last selection from previous step.
6. Close Pinta and reopen (you know like: mono Pinta.exe from terminal line) and New image and this annoying "Clipboard" option is still there set as preset.

I see one of the rare things in Pinta annoying and this New "Clipboard" feature makes me crazy, I constantly change this setting. What I would really love to do is to press: CTRL+N and just press Enter to get the last selection I performed.

This the same behaviour that Pinta's always had - if there is an image on the clipboard, the new image dialog defaults to using the size of that image. It's just a little more obvious what's happening now, since there's a label indicating that the clipboard size is being used.

I can see the argument, though, for this being annoying if an image that you don't care about is still on the clipboard

If this is something that always worked like, then this is probably not a bug, but design decision. I would still prefer to have my last size selection set as default.

Maybe we can postpone this decision to post 1.7 release, because it is not show stopper problem.

Yes, I don't think this is a blocker for 1.7
