Description
This test was changed in JDK-8134612 but it still fails, always, throwing java.awt.datatransfer.UnsupportedFlavorException: text/plain for PASTE on Linux. 
I've tried it with the PIT build containing the change to JDK-8134612.
The test in this form fails always on Ubuntu 16.04 Unity and 12.04 Xfce4.

Oops, it is a known issue.
