This is not Cygwin-specific, but you can capture any Windows window to clipboard by pressing Alt-PrtSc. To get an X window that way, you may need to run X in multiwindow mode. Just for the archives. You can also write to /dev/clipboard from any Cygwin program to copy to the Windows clipboard (or read from there to paste). I'm not sure what happens if you write an image there, though -- I think it's not set to the right format.
