Here's a patch I'm using with an MLS version of glipper to give the capability to check for dominance between copy and paste data contexts. Hopefully some version of this can be upstreamed.

Hi, why did you reverse the two paste operations? In my suggestion I had the "paste" bit meaning "unconditional paste" and "paste_after_confirm" meaning "allow paste only after the user confirms."

Having the confirmation dialog semantics built in to the plain old "paste" permission seems to me like it would be more confusing, and difficult to change later.
