Today I found out that if I have running xclipboard in the background
pasting works properly even from Chromium. The problem is that it's a GUI
app and will store everything that I've copied unless manually deleted. But
you can give it a shot. Haven't really tested how it deals with non-text
content (images).
Also I tried to dig a little bit into how it is handled inside Pharo, but
it is somewhere deep in VM. :(
However middle-click pasting doesn't work but that seem to be simply a
limitation of Pharo (My guess is because it is only supported by Linux and
not Windows/Mac?).
