Been using NetBeans for a year or so now and I love it. But one thing that is sorely missing (or seems to be) is support for multiple clipboards in the editor. I would like to be able to press CONTROL+SHIFT+V to select which of the last 10 or so strings I've cut/copied and paste then it. Currently NB supports pasting the last string. MS Word and most popular programming editors I've used support multiple clipboards.
Moving to the 'other' subcomponent.
I second this. Most editors and IDEs now support multiple clipboards and many developers rely on that feature for productivity. This is one of the major blocking features for NetBeans over IDEs like IntelliJ.
I also think multiple clipboards are important. Unfortunately clipboard recorder from http://www.lw-works.com/ does not work in Netbeans. Netbeans is the only program I know where clipboard recorder is not working!

Netbeans is > the only program I know where clipboard recorder is not working! +1 !!! Any explanation on this ? Maybe should be filled as a separate bug ?
Also Parcellite 1.0.2rc5 does not work with netbeans 7.0.1 on Ubuntu 11.10 Please let me know if I should fill a separate bug for it and clipboard recorder not working on windows. Any explanation ?
Very glad this is being worked on ! Thank you very much ! really this clipboard recorder and similar tools not working was a major PITA Why would this happen by the way ?
issue persists in Netbeans 7.2 Beta (build 201203120400) and Parcellite 0.9.2 The lack of this feature costs me precious seconds every day. Please include it in 7.2 ! :)

There are two reasonable plugins: Dialog-one http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/31336/history-clipboard and code completion-one http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/33351/copy-and-paste-history-for-netbeans-7-0-and-later
Just to note that the problem is that different programs that manipulate the clipboard fail with NB - not that NB should provide such functionality
http://hg.netbeans.org/jet-main/rev/c3423559f4df Shortcut is for now ctrl+alt+v. Mr_and_Mrs_D@netbeans.org: http://www.lw-works.com/ page is broken and Parcellite has latest version from last year. I would file a bug in their report system.
