I think I've figured it out...

Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V uses the X-Clipboard now, and does not go through the old
"copy" code-paths, so the hook is never called.

"ec" and "ey" still run the hook for me.

I "think", we ought to add a new hook "paste-component-hook", to catch
the clipboard pastes, rather than abusing the "copy-component-hook".

This would be a potential candidate for inclusion 1.6.1, but it is
somewhat border-line.

Best wishes,

Peter C.
