I have literally never run into applications mixing up the clipboard and selection on Linux - its always CTRL+C->CLIPBOARD->CTRL+V and select->PRIMARY->middleclick.

Super useful to have two different scratch buffers when moving things around.

Dillo doesn't support Ctrl+C on the contents of websites, so it feels like it mixes them up; actually, it doesn't. (Ninja-edit to correct myself.)
