Then how about we do that by default, since batch sessions are untouchable
in
the user-space.

If a non-interactive instance really needs to access the clipboard (which
normally doesn't), it can easily set `interprogram-paste-function`.
Disabling
prevents those sessions from influencing the primary interactive one
(doesn't
solve the problem for multiple interactive instances, though).

I am experimenting with this patch.

Update: That patch will simply disable interprogram-paste-function
universally,
I need to find a more sophisticated approach.
