Is Wayland supported by default, or is additional logic required for this?

It is unclear to me how Wayland support works.

The crate provides the wayland_clipboard module for interacting with the Wayland clipboard. The copypasta::ClipboardContext definition always provides a X11 context (on Linux) though.

So, does this mean Wayland isn't automatically supported? And does this mean that adding Wayland support requires additional logic by the implementer to determine at runtime whether to construct an X11 or a Wayland clipboard context, including figuring out the Wayland display pointer?

It's impossible to do this automatically. You require a display handle from your window to access the clipboard on Wayland.
