This was true in the bad old days, but in these enlightened times, all

the one discussed at http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/clipboards.txt
So things should only get better from here on out.
And when they get better, Evo and other applications can finally have a
globally working cut-and-paste. Until then, though, it's the fault of all
the window managers for not implementing said common API.
Actually, the hard issues about cut/copy/paste aren't actually related
to this. They are more related to the difficulties of getting the
Cut/Copy/Paste menu items to be bound to all widgets, despite which
process they belong to.
Or, at least, this is the way I'm seeing the more difficult issues.
