 A more technical issue is to do with the way the clipboard hooks are implemented, using native C code ([/browser/xpra/trunk/src/xpra/gtk_common/gdk_atoms.pyx xpra.gtk_common.gdk_atoms] via Cython), which is imported in most platform specific clipboard implementations and also the [/browser/xpra/trunk/src/xpra/gtk_common/nested_main.py nested main loop] code.

 And here is a good quote from it:
   ''Clipboard sharing and network transparency: It's nearly impossible to make the clipboard shared across different desktop computers. In fact it is possible, but such an implementation would be needlessly difficult and complex. The same can be said of support for virtualization (Qemu, Xen, VMWare). Sharing the clipboard between a virtual machine and the desktop itself is painfully difficult to implement correctly (in case X11 is running on the host operating system).''

It also contains the {{{TranslatedClipboardProtocolHelper}}} which is used by Windows clients to translate the local clipboard to a particular X11 clipboard.
