      1. Draw a box and fill it with c20 m40 y60.
      2. Measure with the eyedropper. Result: c20 m40 y60
      3. Draw another box and clip the first into it.
      4. Measure with the eyedropper. Result: c16.47 m38.1 y58.41 k4.22
      5. Release clipping mask.
      5. Measure with the eyedropper. Result: c20 m40 y60

      Additionally, if you output the file to PDF or through the RIP the results are c20 m40 y60, which indicates this is an eyedropper bug.

      Is there any legit reason why this might happen (I can't think of any) before I submit a bug report?
