Details

Start browser, select some text and do Edit|Copy. Open new editor window, put the cursor in the text somewhere and hit Edit|Paste. Nothing happens, this is because we are incorrectly using the last-created nsWindow instance to access X for the clipboard service. Not sure how to fix this, hence this bug. This is probably not M5, but don't push it out too far.
