Makes sense.  How does the attached patch look?

It should also fix the issue indicated by Juri by adding a new user
option for the number of entries in the "Paste from Kill Ring" menu.
I set it to 60 by default, as that was the previous max number of
entries, and it feels like it should have the least amount of impact to
just change nothing, but I'm open to alternative suggestions.
