Yeah, the fix by Kristian makes sense.

We need a clipboard abstraction that gets rid of GtkTargetEntry or mime types
because mime types don't work for at least text. But I suspect they're equally
broken for images, HTML, and all the other kinds of data you want to exchange
between display server and apps.

I originally wanted to avoid having per-backend and per-data-type serialization
functionality, but I'm more and more convinced that is the right approach, at
least internally.
