Clipboard access: Cocoa compared to X11

Compare the Cocoa clipboard code with the X11 clipboard code. Makes me wonder how crappy X11 drag and drop will be (and yes, I do plan on supporting drag and drop in the UI).

As I recall, freedesktop.org has the main useful X DND specification and additionally some stuff concerning the X clipboard. Everything the ICCCM touches turns to horrible life sucking shit, yes, but even still things are somewhat better now than they used to be even five years ago.
