Research direction
Reproduce the clipboard failure with micro commit cfcb2e4 in Fedora Kinoite 38, using distrobox with Fedora 36 and Konsole. Start by tracing the clipboard behavior during copy and compare it with paste and copying outside the container. Done means copying from micro preserves clipboard contents and works in the reported environment.
