In any event, I have just tested on one Win 8.1 machine and the clipboard empties on that when Calibre Viewer is closed too, just as the OP describes. It is not a problem for me in any way at all though so I am just mentioning, not looking to any change to that behaviour.
@AnotherCat - it would have surprised me if clipboard had changed Win 8, I doubt its changed since Win 2.0

I turned off my clipboard gadgets, I get the problem with the Viewer and the Editor in 2.1 on Win 7, I don't get the problem with 1.48. And I don't get the problem with Sigil CV or BV. So it does seem to be peculiar to Calibre V2.1
