I'm seeking Clippings support for Thunderbird, and if it doesn't exist (I can't get it to work in TB 17.0.x), I'm considering creating said capability myself:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=871314

Guidance, suggestions, pointers?

Yes, I know Postbox claims Clippings (or something) support for OmniFocus, but 1) I can't get it to work and 2) I still need Thunderbird over Postbox (at least until Postbox offers a "Group by Sort" feature... and possibly then some).

Postbox clippings worked for me. I think there's a plug-in you need to make it work (or a preference you need to turn on). Then, you simply select the text of the message you want to clip, right click it (or ctrl-clip) and then select the OF clipping entry from the services menu (at least that's my memory--I haven't used that feature in a while).

The Postbox option will not work for me, but thx for the info.

I bought Postbox, because I could see no viable way of getting the clippings happening with TB. I'm not a coder, so I could not program my own solution. Therefore, PB was the closest I could come.

Thx kingsinger, but let's not confuse the situation for the other readers. To clarify: I'm requesting Thunderbird <-> OmniFocus Clippings integration (not Postbox), and seeking guidance for how to potentially create this (presumably via some programming) in Thunderbird or whatever''s needed.
