            Bug ID: 424855
           Summary: Firefox (wayland) and klipper aren't interacting
                    correctly
           Product: kwin
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: platform-wayland
          Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
  Target Milestone: ---

firefox on copy:
-> send_selection(nullptr);
-> send_selection(some_offer);


klipper:
selection(nil)

->create offer with the old text
->send_selection(new  offer)

then we have two things  hitting the compositor at once:
 - firefox with the new contents
 - kipper re-posting the old contents


Our compositor is naive and just does last content received is the best which
is now a race, but more often that not is klipper re-pasting the old contents
that gets received last and "wins". The rest are cancelled. 

I don't know what a good fix for this is.
