Yes, i want to copy to CLIPBOARD instead of PRIMARY, because CTRL-C is not an 
option :-) 
 
The global klipper-sync-CLIPBOARD-to-PRIMARY is (at least for me) not really 
usefull, because i don't like that any selection overwrites the clipboard. 
 
The "Windows quick edit mode" is both simple (just a right click) and 
well-known to anybody doing a lot of Windows commmand line work. 
 
A common use case would be 
1) select some text in konsole 
2) copy it to CLIPBOARD via right-mouse-click 
3) select some text in kate 
4) replace the selected text with CTRL-V 
 
That use case is not possible with the klipper-sync-CLIPBOARD-to-PRIMARY 
solution and (at least for me) to cumbersome with the current konsole 
implementation.
