No - that right there is the cause for the great disconcertion of every individual I know using vim right now. The cutting and pasting is not the yanks and put of VIM. VIM should get out of the way and like the terminal and X do it...

You put it in input moved and middle click in..

You select and it can now be middle mouse button entered in to any other X11 device.
