--- Comment #3 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Thanks for the explanation.

Mouse-selected text is intended to be quite transient. If we saved it, we'd
need to have like two sources of data visible in the popup: one stack of
history for Ctrl+C and another one for mouse-selected text. This would make the
UI quite strange. If we intermixed them, the history wouldn't work as people
expect, and would be commonly populated with random-seeming text, which is in
fact how it used to be, and we got a lot of complaints about it.

Given that both workflows are possible right now, and the only think that's not
as desired is saving the mouse-selected text in the history, I think we can't
formally support this, sorry. Thanks for the request anyway!
