The same way FLOSS syncthing keeps a text file in sync across N different systems, OSs, etc? I mean, it's usually a specialized product, but being as both are FLOSS, I guess someone could spend time to integrate either the tech just for clipboard, or hack something together with a text file that is synced and then the X2Go client puts whatevers in the text file into the clipboard on the computer it's running on?
Of course, that's a lot of work, and I'm just being slightly flippant.
I often work around clipboard sync issues (hello freerdp) with a shared text file that I overwrite wherever and then copy paste "locally".
Yes, xfreerdp is constantly breaking clipboard...
Having such a second clipboard sync mechanism looks easy at first glance. But you somehow need to integrate with existing clipboard, and that's where the problems begin (again).
