------- Comment #3 from alp at nuanti.com  2008-08-11 16:26 PDT -------
The performance hit/memory fragmentation of converting HTML to text every time
a large selection is changed would be too great, and would rule out the
possibility of content negotiation (copy and paste as HTML, text, rich text,
Pango markup etc.)

I think we need to avoid copying the inner text of the selection every time it
changes, instead responding to a primary selection request when it happens (Qt
does the former and I don't like it.)
