I still think the clipboard is screwed, I hate having two separate
clipboards and find it really confusing (e.g. which clipboard do toolbar
buttons use? Which items go to the klipper history?). But maybe that is
because I am used to the old way. Probably new users wouldn't even find
out about the middle button to paste feature.

Can we just check that this won't break for people with wheelmice?

As a side issue, I really miss the "click on wheelmouse to scroll"
feature of IE. Is anyone working on this?
