Now I think about it further, I think it unsettles me partly because it's the first application I've used that breaks a rule I'd previously internalized: that what I select to copy into the paste buffer isn't per se input to any application I didn't paste it into. I'll get used to it, I just didn't want to miss an easy way not to have to. > You can do the disassociation in a shell/Perl/etc. script.

That might actually be worth to getting around to. Some applications can remember what state they were in when they were killed and then restore it, but things like Adobe Reader don't.
