[Clippings] Minor problem inserting with Clippings 2.0.1

[Alex Eng]

There have been no other reports of this problem occurring. Is this
occurring with all your clippings?  What does the clipping you are
trying to insert contain?  Are there any special symbols, foreign
language characters, etc. that might be causing this problem?  Keep in
mind that Clippings only recognizes textual content - images and other
data formats aren't supported.
