Indeed, and I didn't outright dismiss his statement.  If there is
nothing wrong with his program, then I will implement a flag in
x-set-selection that makes gui-selection-value revert to the old
behaviour if it was not called by gui-select-text.

But there has to be a very good reason to break an equally long-lasting
assumption about the conditions under which x-selection-value is
expected to behave.

Watch your language, that tone is not welcome anywhere.
