Clipboard Unifier

Unifies the clipboards so there's virtually only one clipboard. Allows you to choose which apps work with select-to-copy, and allows to disable the middle-click paste. This extension reads and writes to the clipboard.

Hello, I run shexli and found the warning about accessing the clipboard. I added a comment in the description as per the docs (https://gjs.guide/extensions/review-guidelines/review-guidelines.html#clipboard-access-must-be-declared), but I'm not sure if that's enough or something else is needed. I've been using the extension on my system for a few weeks and it works.
