- I would opt-out of it in a heartbeat.

IIRC I raised this back in 2011/12-ish, the response must have been -ve because the issue remains. I have a set of global clipboard tools that work in all the applications I use. The only application specific clipboard tool I value is the Autocopy browser extension.

I've also noticed that Sigil puts things that I copy in other applications into its clipboard history, this exacerbates the privacy issue.
