Clipboard manager in gnome-settings-daemon
So I went ahead and committed code to add a clipboard manager into gnome-settings-daemon. To try it out, you need latest CVS. Then, just:
- Start gedit
- Type some text and copy it
- Quit gedit
- Start gedit again and marvel that the text is still available for pasting!
The code should be relatively bug-free but if you encounter any problems, feel free to comment. (Also, note that this only works with applications that support it by calling gtk_clipboard_set_can_store, except for text copying which should work pretty much everywhere)

Clipboard manager
Philip, if you took the time to read the code you'd see that it's only using the GTK+ mainloop, the other code is plain Xlib. I have a new version that we're gonna upload on The Imedio developer site that just uses Xlib for everything, is that desktop neutral enough for you?
The best thing here would be to build the clipboard saving feature into something like gnome-settings-daemon.
