That was the idea. It'd be simple enough to do. Slightly simpler than just pushing the other X11 events into the queue until we get the paste information, though not much. May not be enough to warrant it. The application developer would probably prefer the interface where we wait, though, and since most platforms (as well as most libraries offering clipboard functions) work like that, it may be better to just work like that anyway.
