José, I wasn't talking about Evil's internal clipboard. The terminology is a bit confusing, at least under the X window system. By saying clipboard I was referring to the clipboard that is used for copying text between applications, say from Evil to your web browser. When you press x in Vim and then Ctrl-v in your web browser, the pasted text is not the character that was deleted by the x operation because x usually doesn't copy to the general system-wide clipboard. The same goes for other yank and delete operations (unless you send stuff to the + register). My proposal, was to change Evil to copy yanked and deleted text to the system-wide clipboard by default but to exclude x from that because copying single characters is not a common use case. Of course, I don't want to change how the x operator works inside Evil and xp should always work the way you descibe it.
