I was not sure about this, mostly because of difference in behavior between platforms. For now I could add a test that simply sets `ClipboardContent` and then tries to put it on the Clipboard, but because each platform behaves differently I can't double-check if Clipboard was correctly (not) updated - Windows will return a valid object, while Linux will return null.

I can also write a proper test, make it work only on Linux assuming this is the behavior we want to follow and exclude it on other platforms, that way [JDK-8373090](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8373090) will have it mostly ready to go.

Which option do you prefer?
