In order to get this feature, I'm thinking of upgrading now to
wx-2.8.9 . I don't imagine there's any reason to prefer wx-2.8.8,
but please let me know if I'm missing something.

This particular feature alone may be worth the cost of upgrading
because it lets us embed pastable examples in the html help file
to demonstrate "Census | Paste census data", an often-used feature
that many end users need help with.
