So far as i know, you create a key binding (e.g. with a menu item),
and then in the handler for that command, pull data from the clipboard
and do the appropriate list insertions.
Instead of spamming the message with lots of boilerplate code to set
up the accelerators and all that, here's a bunch of GtkBuilder XML.
The interesting part is the on_paste() callback, near the end, which
just grabs the clipboard contents as plain text, splits by whitespace,
and inserts each item as its own line. In a real app, you'd do more
appropriate parsing and marshaling and whatnot.
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Glib ':constants';
use Gtk2 -init;
use Gtk2::SimpleList;

# Gtk2::Builder is cool. Now we can express the shortcuts and menu
items
# and all that as data instead of as tedious code.
