Sorry, I don't understand the question.  I asked specifically about
other applications, where the user can do "Select All" to select the
text of an entire document -- does this set the primary selection in
those other applications?  If not, then I think your objection to use
'only' is not valid, because we aren't doing anything that the users
won't expect.
