there is a missing update. Abdel?

This is not about painting at all. "Lost X selection" just means that LyX lost the token. The formally selected text should stay selected. Thus, there is nothing to redraw. If you want LyX to get back the token, you should select something else. Well at least in theory, I am not sure there is no bug with the X selection protocol.

BTW, if paste, from an user's point view, always pastes from external,
what is the point of menu item "paste external clipboard/selection"?
If there is no objection, I am changing it to "paste special".

Conceptually you're right. I would be OK with this change.
