I can confirm this bug in Epiphany and Empathy using Webkit-1.3.2 in Ubuntu 10.04.

Clipboard managers such as Klipper (a part of KDE), Glipper, Parcellite and Clipman work around this problem so it's expected that you wouldn't be able to reproduce it if you're running one of those.

It's not a GTK+ bug; that is to say, gtk provides the functions ickard mentioned so that applications can save their data before they exit. It would be nice if existing applications didn't have to handle it manually, but right now gtk_clipboard_set_can_store()/gtk_clipboard_store() are the right way of fixing it.
