As a matter fact, I am not sure that the copy and paste with the central mouse 
button (X-Window method) is described somewhere.

Furthermore, when KDE on Qt/Mac will work, you won't have any X-Window metthod 
available, since X11 will not be available. Of course this problem is easily 
solved : you can be precise and say "If KDE works under X-Window, then..."

Right.

No, you are perfectly right.

In the userguide then ? A "keyboard and mouse operation" section ?

On the other hand, one expects to find the solution ... near the solution too. 
It has to be in both places IMHO (or to have a cross-pointer).
