Bug description
Hi.
Sometimes (not always) the clipboard history provided by "Clipboard plugin" is not displayed on the active desktop.
Steps to reproduce
- using two monitors, use the mission control function to create more spaces.
- move to the second space and invoke Quicksilver
- copy some value (example: text from the browser)
- Press the ⌘L shortcut to open the clipboard history
- Observe that you can't see the clipboard history. Reason => the clipboard history is opened on the first space, but you (an quicksilver interface) are on the second space
Expected behavior
I expect see the clipboard history on the same space than Quicksilver interface.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with two monitors, multiple Mission Control spaces, Quicksilver 2.4.2, and Clipboard plugin 1.8.1. Start by inspecting the Clipboard plugin's clipboard-history display behavior and compare the active Quicksilver interface space with the space where the history opens. Done means clipboard history appears on the same space as Quicksilver.
