Yes, you should have a proper Edit menu.

But from what I gather the real problem would arise with people trying to
Control-X/C/V in windows other than the main window.  Control X/C/V should
work in every edit field in a Windows application, whether triggered from
the edit menu or not.

In fact I believe normal system editfields that you create by the API work
this way by default, and even include a right click menu if you don't
override it.  I have no idea what you guys at Real are doing to make them
though.  :)
