As others have said you can achieve this (in Gnome at least) by making a window "Always visible on workspace" or with Gnome3 you can keep adisplay static while the other one has multiple workspaces on. In fact I have three displays with the desktop spanned across them, however only the middle one has multiple workspaces - the two outer displays are static. > > > Clearly then Evolution is accessing a different clipboard buffer on > > each screen - I wonder if it's something to do with GTK rather than X > > itself.

Ultimately though, if you consider the cut and paste issues to be a problem, then you need to file a bug report in Bugzilla. At least then it will be sure to be seen by those who can analyse it better than here. If you do file a bug report, please let this list know the number so anyone searching the archives can follow it up.
