I've just locally disabled any reaction to SelectionClear events in

for us, anyway? Who's the X expert around here?
The idea is that only one application should have the selection at the
same time. If you open two terminal windows (or one terminal and one
firefox), you will see that it is not possible to have a selection in
the two at the same time.
This depends. Selecting in Firefox clears the selection in Konsole, but
not vice versa. Firefox has obviously chosen to ignore the
SelectionClear event, and I'd propose we should do the same. Why should
selecting in Firefox clear my carefully made selection in LyX?
