Is there a way to use (set?) the content of clipboard in lua config?

Examples:
1.
  I want to start web browser and point it to url from clipboard. I
  use the following code:
  
  spawn_with_shell("uzbl $(xclip -o)")
  
  is there a simpler way?


2.
  I would like to execute an arbitrary lua code from clipboard,
  something like:

  awful.util.eval(past_code_from_clipboard_here)

  Is there a simpler solution than:

  spawn_with_shell("xclip -o | awesome-client -")

  which seems to be overkill ;)
