Hi Tim,

Funny - just a few minutes ago, before reading your message, I learned
while installing https://github.com/stig/ox-jira.el, about =
org-export-copy-to-kill-ring=:

org-export-copy-to-kill-ring is a variable defined in ox.el.

Non-nil means pushing export output to the kill ring.

This variable is ignored during asynchronous export.


In my brief testing, it does exactly what you want: regardless of the
export output or method (to a file or to a temporary buffer), the result is
placed in the clipboard.

Best,
--Diego
