I'm tempted to either mark this as blocker, or at least to raise importance again: this is a showstopper for releasing a quartz-based package for Mac OS X, and it seems to get worse over time (recent changes to extensions now may trigger even more errors - with current trunk I have to close 10 (!) error messages from output extensions when quitting inkscape after simply having inserted a symbol (from the symbols dialog) into a new document before quitting).

Possible solutions:
a) script-based output extensions need to fail _silently_ when processing the clipboard content on request (e.g. from GTK+),
or (alternatively):
b) do not support the idea of a persistent clipboard and never attempt to output the current clipboard content to _all_ supported file formats on quitting the application (ignore any requests).
