It seems that Android emacs copies to (and from?) the system clipboard
very often. This is not the case in other Android apps: There copy to
and from the system clipboard is a very explicit operation. Perhaps it
should be so also in Android emacs: Create a new set of elisp
functions for this, and initially only have them bound to a couple of
icons at the top of emacs. Perhaps also provide interaction using long
press.

When I do the evil yank, that is copy some text object to evil
registers, Android displays a pop up text that says the text has been
copied to the system clipboard.

If nothing else, I believe that removing the current connection of
internal copy paste, to system clipboard copy paste, would remove the
annoying "out of memory error".
