I'm not sure why this was copied to the cygwin list; it reads like a 
personal email.  However, many of the capabilities you list are already 
available from standard cygwin packages.  The 'cygutils' package 
provides putclip/getclip, a stdio interface to the windows clipboard 
(there's also /dev/clipboard, but that's another story).  Upcoming 
(current?) cygwin kernels provide direct access to the registry via 
/proc/registry(?).  Also, cygwin has LONG shipped with 'regtool' which 
allows registry manipulation.
