Please  fix  X.org  to  not  have such insane assumptions. The clipboard
problem in X.org is completely bugged. St is here to save you from  even
considering to make invidual usage of PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD.

Can  you  please elaborate where you use both selections in parallel for
different tasks and where st does interfere?
