I am not sure I understand 1. I think it would be that third party app's responsibility to to put in the clipboard private data.

I understand 2. and it is the reason RTF was blacklisted in the first place as far as I can tell. I agree with your solution also it may be a little annoying to implement since AppKit does the RTF conversion for us.
