Oooh, didn't know about this.

Yeah, it's clearly not necessary if we store selection data automatically... my
mind jumped to it because it's required in ICCM. So we can avoid this
complexity.

The original purpose of the separate store request was to avoid unnecessary
clipboard IPC overhead, but it's surely not relevant in 2016.
