- On X selection ownership initiate a transfer to "pasteboard"
- Charge the transfer with content pulled from the X client
- Monitor pasteboard for available content (not implemented yet)
- Pull content from content hub when X client pastes
- Mir will provide cookies for authentication (not implemented yet)
