• Protection against clipboard monitors (other applications won't get notifications that the clipboard content has been changed).
• Paste-once functionality: allow only one paste operation, after pasting the clipboard is cleared automatically by KeePass.
what happened to the above features for 2.x?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
These features were attempts to make the clipboard a bit more secure. However, it turned out that these attempts didn't work satisfactorily. Not only they caused incompatibilities, they also were rather useless (it's pretty easy to write malware that steals the clipboard contents anyway), thus they haven't been implemented in the newer KeePass 2.x.
