This is just how the X11 clipboard works. The X11 clipboard contents are
stored within the application "owning" the clipboard, if you close it, poof,
there goes the clipboard. You need to run a clipboard manager such as
Klipper, Glipper etc., which fixes this by taking ownership of the
clipboard automatically.
