First, this behavior now matches that of dmenu. People switching over from dmenu might be used to this. I would argue, though, that it is more comfortable in general anyway: The "primary" selection is often easier to access, you can just select some text and be done with it, no need to reach for C-c (or even C-S-c in terminals). Some programs like XTerm can't even put text into the "clipboard" selection without special configuration. It thus makes sense to make this selection available with a hotkey that's easier to reach (I find C-y to be much more comfortable than C-Y). Only in rare circumstances do I need to access the "clipboard" selection. In practice, this change is *probably* not a (very) breaking change for users, because you very often have to select some text first using a mouse (thus putting it into the "primary" selection) before you can put it into the "clipboard" selection using something like C-c. This means that pasting from "primary" almost acts as a "magic" hotkey that does "the right thing". |
