Copy to clipboard

Add Copy to clipboard function to user interfaces (CME and XPM) to quickly copy Content Manager URIs and WebDAV URLs to the clipboard.

Suggested functionality works flawless in the UI of AWS to manage EC2 instances... ;)

I think copy from the clipboard is especially restricted, but good point on browser security. We'll see if the click-to-copy interaction works and compare with other examples.

Good idea. I'm not sure it's practical to directly copy to the clipboard, as most browsers have disabled programmatic clipboard access as a security measure. What does work is to put the relevant text into a text box and highlight it, which makes copy and paste very simple. An example of this technique is the share link on stack exchange questions.
