That would be good in my opinion. It addresses a different scenario than a
rectangular copy.

Even better would be to have a PASTE command which supports transforming
newlines to spaces. This way linear copy would always preserve newlines, but
the user could have them transformed to spaces by paste action.

I have not had any issues with rectangular copy/spurious space at the end of
lines.

There are two things which I am hoping for:

1) That CLIP_ADD would not separate the previous content of the clipboard with
a newline. I don't want any separator character at all.

2) Bracketd paste. I don't know if this is feasible or not. At least Linux
terminal does not support it, but tmux and many applications nowadays do.
