Copy/Paste in Unix Croquet

Hi. Copy/paste does not work by default in cobalt/croquet images
running on unix.

To fix, it, I enabled the preference general >
usePrimitiveClipboard. The baloon help says this preference is
supposed to prevent a crash in the unix vm, but no such crash
happens when I copy/paste text from workspaces or browsers or
any other place I normally copy/paste from.

Anybody know why this preference is there?

You must also disable the preference general >
automaticPlatformSettings for this to persist after a
save/restart.
