The reason was indeed to call x-selection-value-internal. All this
selection stuff is a bit messy now. Ideally x-get-selection should use
x-select-request-type and we could reduce the number of function that
gets selection on X. However, one would have to check all platforms and
all uses of the current routines to do a good refactoring.
