I guess what Christoph meant was to avoid having another XSelect daemon.
I've not seen the code (and deleted the original mail in case it's linked  
there - winkwink) but my approach would be to have a tool to be invoked  
when "something" happens, rather than adding yet another keyboard event  
listening daemon bound to a very specific event.

Actually I've a setup a udev rule to simply "fix" things whenever I  
un/plug a mouse (not sure what or where that particular key is)

Cheers,
Thomas
