Well... that is certainly the common usage, but I think it's fine to call gtk_clipboard_store() whenever we receive data. Otherwise, it's hard to think of why else the API exists, if not to be used. The benefit would be as Darin mentions. The cost would be performance in the case of huge clipboard selections, but that's not a super practical concern, and clipboard managers can reject selections that are too big. So I think either approach is fine.

Agreed.
