Cut and paste in these programs do not generally use the selection, they
use the clipboard mechanism.

My guess is that either tigervnc doesn't support the selection mechanism
at all and/or uses cut buffers. You'd have to ask the tigervnc developers
- they have to provide the standard selection mechanism like other
implementations to make it work.

I am not sure what that means (the old contents of something that's empty
are deleted?).

vncviewer probably implements the selection correctly then.

That sounds stringly like a bug in tigervnc.
