First of all, in general I agree with you. However, would it be possible to
have the code look at clipboard first and then fall back to the selection
(the selection code falls back got the clipboard already).

A lot of people use the keyboard for pasting, and this would fail for them.
Those people almost never use the clipboard, so faling back to the selection
would keep backward compatibility for them.

Also, that way less code would need to be duplicated, I think.
