Looks like readable_events should filter out a few more event types,
when passed READABLE_EVENTS_FILTER_EVENTS in `flags'?  I could think
of additional events that should not end sit-for, e.g. keyboard
language switch.

?? Doesn't M-w copy to the clipboard now?

Probably.  But selection requests shouldn't interrupt sit-for
regardless, since (AFAIR) they can come in out of Emacs's control.
