I've tried to use a clipboard manager for years to help obviate this sort of issue.

I'm currently using ClipMenu on OSX, which hits all the right needs for me. Anyone have a suggestion for Windows?

I'm not sure how this helps the issue but here's a great windows clipboard manager.

Well, I found that I would use search/URL fields as a "temporary scratchpad" for passwords, when I had to copy-paste something else, and didn't want to lose the password in my clipboard. The history means I don't have to worry about that anymore.

Thanks for Ditto!
