Ed,

We must think alike :)  I have just been thinking about how to have our 
own version numbers reported by 'xdpyinfo' and possibly other places 
(like the log file or an 'About' box).

Regarding xwinclip, you should really be using (XWin -clipboard) as it 
now works with Xdmcp connections and it no longer steals ownership of 
the selection in X everytime you highlight something in programs like emacs.
