Thanks for proposing the patch. For me the patch is a bit too hackish, since xclip will keep up a process and this might cause too many useless processes hanging around. This is rather a hack for a feature the X11 architecture is missing for you. You can add it to the wiki. For the final decision I’m waiting for the opinion of k0ga. He said on IRC, that he will review your patch tomorrow. Sincerely, Christoph Lohmann
