If you need an older selection, click the Kliper icon to pick it up.

I'd say that text selections are managed by the GUI.
Yes, but sadly I would have to replace a part at the GUI system core. And I guess this is not possible for a small application. And perhaps it would break a lot of other stuff.

There are mainly 2 GUI systems at maemo N900. GTK and Qt. I would have to replace at both the Library that manages text inputs. And if I would get this working there would be still applications, like Opera, with their own Text Input fields...

So, no. Sorry. For the Clipboard there is a API to listen in the background. But for Textinputfields I haven't seen something like that before.
