Again this should not be necessary. middle button click should
paste the
selected text from step 1.
Select and paste has been a part of X11 since long before Apple
ever had
anything to do with it. For whatever reason Apple did not
implement it properly
when using X11 on OSX. Too bad.

You're misunderstanding. He's pasting into an Aqua app. So he needs
command-C and command-V. The select and middle-click thing works
fine in X11. Apple did not implement any of that part, it's built
into the X server.
