Middle button should paste (the selection or the clipboard), windows people won't care since they don't use the middle button. 2. M-x and C-w should copy and kill to the clipboard as well as the kill ring. This is the behaviour that *really* bugs me, the old way you could only get stuff in the clipboard my using the menubar, toolbar or bogus ^H^H^H^H^H appropriate Windows keystrokes. 3. C-y should yank from the clipboard, in what preference to the kill-ring I don't know - the beauty of the X model is that these decisions are easy. As Martin and Ben said last night "there should always be an option" :) Doing things the way windows people expect without breaking things that work the way XEmacs people expect seems reasonable to me. And the windows way should probably be the default. Don't know but its easy to do. No problem.
