They don't export their clipboard text to the X-selection
mechanism. Asking the author if he would be willing to support this would
be a good way to start a dialog.

Yes it's sharing. It's kind of a running joke in GNOME community to
talk of "stealing" someone's GPL'd code :-) It emphasizes the cool things
one can do with GPL'd applications. Except if you're QT, Mozilla or Open
Office which require dual licensing. They can't do tricks like this.
