I don't mind the extras being copied, but I would find the extras always being pasted very annoying.

Right now, if I want the clip and the reference (window title of the source) I press Ctrl+Alt+V at paste time, if I use Ctrl+V and then realise I want the reference I can press Ctrl+Z, Ctrl+Alt+V. And it works irrespective of the clip source - browsers, text editors, pdf and comic book viewers, image viewers, file managers, epub viewers such as calibre's, azardi and balabolka's TTS reader...

Sure its not styled as a formal APA/Chicago/MLA/IEEE etc citation, but its probably enough to get such a thing should I actually need it.

At sometime in the future I will lose my current clipboard manager, I would gladly pay for a replacement with similar functionality - but I am yet to find one.
