If the copy/paste fails on you, I think you have to look at the 
copy/paste settings at both ends. Start looking at the X11 side (your 
cygwin Xserver). X11 is known to have multiple buffers that can be used 
with copy and paste. I recall the existance of a 'select' buffer and a 
difference between the right-mouse-button copy and a menu-copy. Have a 
look at the setting of these and if/how they are handled with your 
desktops copy/paste buffer (I expect msWindows here).

You can also have a look at other vncviewer-implementations like 
real-vnc, tight-vnc, true-vnc and such. There are also more commercial 
implementations.
