I just tried again ...

The callback is called when the clipboard is pasted via the context menu, not when
its done with the middle mouse button. Basically useless under X. (Even if you use
the context menu, this doesn't help, as you can't paste in the editable=False
protected regions.)

This one gets called on every mouse click. So I could make use of it. But this would
involve second-guessing, or , if you prefer, assuming that button 2 always means
"paste clipboard".  I'd hate doing this. I'd rather leave it as it is, then.

Seems there's no easy answer. My users and me will have to make do.

Thanks for your time.
