3 features wished: copy & paste

Hi all

The first feature wished is copying from the selection on Linux. It works quite well, but there is a case were the clipboard is not updated. When double-clicking on a word, that word is selected, but the clipboard is not updated.

The second feature wished is pasting from the clipboard, when the content has HTML markup, like when pasting a hyperlink from Firefox or OpenOffice. In this case, the outcome of pasting is just plain text.

And then while I'm here, drag'n'drop rich text from Firefox or OpenOffice would also be nice.

Sorry to bring up this old topic, but rich text copy-paste would be killer.
I'm considering using amaya as a (portable) notetaker, and this is a make-it-or-break-it feature.

Thanks!
