Description Eitan CLA 2007-09-26 05:25:57 EDT 
I'm trying to implement a mechanism that replaces a regular clipboard. I need to synchronize this mechanism with the system clipboard but I can't since I don't know when an element is being inserted into the clipboard.
It would be very helpful if the API included a method that adds a clipboard events listener to the Clipboard class.
Another approach might be to add a time-stamp, or some other ordering to the elements in the clipboard. I know that this is built-in in Windows but I'm not sure about the other operating systems.
