You might want to look at GtkEditable as an example of doing this.

One problem I see is your use of GDK_CURRENT_TIME; this results in
race conditions that can cause another client to steal your
selection. Use event->time from the event triggering the selection.

Also, you need to reclaim the selection whenever the selection is
changed, in order to update that timestamp, I believe.
