I have recognized that a buffer size of 128*4 bytes is quite small to store base64 encoded clipboard content (see OSC52), especially when copying multiple code lines in a terminal editor like vim. 1048576 is 1 mega of 4 byte UTF-8 characters. It is quite big but I simply chose a value that should even be big enough for very large text copy operations. Other values are also OK. The point is that 128*4 bytes are too small for the escape sequence buffer (in my opinion).
