Should be fixed by:
commit 214f8fd969127c41a7d53def196118ee0549a411

clipboard: don't request targets without owner on X11
On X11, if the owner in GdkEventOwnerChange is set to NULL,
it means there's no data in the clipboard, so it's pointless to
request targets as the request will fail anyway.
On Wayland, owner is always NULL, so don't do anything there.

The fact that the patch in this mail thread is related to keyboard-grab
was the reason to be nacked. If you want to discuss that, we might move
along to that thread on clibpoard-managers, sent as RFC

I think we can still improve documentation to clarify the race and
behaviors. There are a few things that I thought were obvious and in
fact Marc-André pointed out I was wrong.
Either way, let me know if I'm missing something.
