In case it isn't clear, if you need to implement a menu option to
cut/copy/paste, you pass the approprate key to the core.

So for browser windows:

browser_window_key_press(bw, KEY_CUT_SELECTION);
browser_window_key_press(bw, KEY_COPY_SELECTION);
browser_window_key_press(bw, KEY_PASTE);

Then the gui_{get|set}_clipboard functions will be called by the core if
the core is able to deal with the action.

(e.g. for KEY_PASTE, there must be an editable feature with input focus in
the core for it to act on the KEY_PASTE and call gui_get_clipboard).
