Comment (by gk):

 Folks, calm down.

 1) There is already the option to get that behavior you want on non-Linux
 platforms: just leave the private browsing mode (PBM). I guess that this
 is working even within the PBM on Linux is due to someone not caring about
 Linux when the original feature (clear clipboard when last PBM window got
 closed) got implemented.

 2) This behavior will change when we base Tor Browser on ESR 38 which is
 happening in two weeks for the alpha and in eight weeks for the stable
 series as this feature got reverted in
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=815952. Thus, this will be a
 non-issue in Tor Browser 5.0
