[Gimp-developer] Image cut-n-paste; Mac clipboard plugin

[Brion Vibber <brion@xxxxxxxxx>]

So far as I recall, Gimp has always lacked the ability to copy and paste 
images to other applications. Is this something that still requires 
support from Gtk to do cleanly? I noticed that the Win32 port of Gimp 
ships with a plugin that hacks in some clipboard support, and have had a 
go at porting it to Mac OS X: http://leuksman.com/mac/gimp/clipboard/

It seems to work for me (on Mac OS X 10.3.4), though the whole method 
feels a bit hackish; requiring separate Copy and Paste menu items to 
access the system clipboard is unusual...

I'm not sure this is really the right place, but I'd appreciate any 
feedback, in particular bug reports and any advice on making a 
distributable binary that can be dropped into place for people using 
bundled binary distributions of Gimp.
