xforms and X Selections

To subscribers of the xforms list from Martin Bartlett <martin@nitram.demon.co.uk> :

One thing I would really like added to xforms is the ability to set the
primary X selection to the value of an input field - or the value of ANY
reasonable object for that matter, and the ability to set the value of an
object to the primary selection. The generic X way of doing it is so much
hassel - and I haven't completely grasped it anyway. I realize the ability
is there for Inputs, but only under the control of Xforms - no program
setting is possible (believe me, I've tried!!)

Does anyone have any experience with this?
