I played around with JS uifc the copy/cut/paste mode flags and it seemed to work as expected. Here's a little test script I wrote, if it's of any help:

load("uifcdefs.js");
if(!uifc.init("Test app"))
    exit(-1);
js.on_exit("uifc.bail()");
do {
    var selection = uifc.list(WIN_CUT|WIN_COPY|WIN_PASTE, "test", ["one",
       "two", "three"]);
    uifc.msg(format("selection = %x", selection));
} while(selection != -1);
