This bit from the help seems to indicate that if you don't render
anything, then the clipboard will just forget agout you.

<Win32.hlp - Delayed Rendering>
Any clipboard formats that are not rendered in response to the
WM_RENDERALLFORMATS message cease to be available to other
applications and are no longer enumerated by the clipboard functions. 
</help>

So it would seem that doing nothing would be fine, but return 0,
processed.
