As you said, xclip does a lot more than sselp and in this case sselp perfectly fits the bill the suckless way. People who know where to find dmenu should be able to find sselp, I believe most dmenu users are getting new dmenu version here, I don't know for others distros, but in debian for example, dmenu and sselp are packaged together with a bunch of other tools. I meant that anywhere one could get dmenu, sselp is never far away.
