Looking good so far.  I fixed a few warnings about unused variables.  
BTW, if you have a function call that takes a parameter that it doesn't 
use you can put _U_ after it and Wireshark's compilation process will 
expand that to code that tells (gcc at least) not to warn about that.

Instead of encoding the contents into base64, decoding a stream of 
base64 data and placing the decoded data in the clipboard would be very 
useful.

The documentation here needs to be updated with new screenshots and 
text: 
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChWorkDisplayPopUpSection.html 
You can find this chapter in the source as 
docbook/wsug_src/WSUG_chapter_work.xml.
