None of these are really nice options. I use urxvt which is a rather standard terminal; I want my status interval to be 2 seconds; and I find copy-mode less efficient when I want to just grab something quick. I resort to toggling the status off when I want to cut something, but this is annoying since most of the time I select something, realize that the status is still on, watch my selection dissolve in front of my eyes, and then toggle and reselect. Hence, I for one would love to see tmux figure out a way to work with normal (urxvt at least) terminal selection!
