[X2Go-User] Clipboard doesn't work?

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".
