I've always wondered why we didn't do this, especially since RTF cut
and paste can be somewhat lossy and RTF export is at minimum 2-pass.
This wouldn't be too hard to do, so I might do this in the next few
days. I'll update every importer and exporter (hopefully) so that it
can handle clipboard data trivially.
