No.
Abdel's answers reprents the status quo, but further cleanup may change
these.
For example, paste means either paste as lines or paragraph,
No, paste means the more recent of either "internal paste from clipboard
stack" or system clipboard paste as lines (by default) or paragraph
optionally.
and
middle-button paste (selection-paste) means either selection as lines
or paragraph.
No, it can also be paste from the internal architecture (using the
clipboard stack for now but this is going to change).
Therefore, at least two special items can be removed.
Nope.
This is also true for LFUN, since LFUN_PASTE should be the same as
LFUN_CLIBPARD_PASTE.
Again no. See above.
(We have at most two sorts of paste, why three
LFUNs?)
Hope this is clear now. Please let's stop this discussion. The Clipboard
is fixed now. We will fix the Selection hopefully soon.
Abdel.
