Description of the Issue
(Some would see this as a Feature Request; I see it as a Bug because unexpected behavior is obtained)
Sometimes I am sloppy with selecting text when using Copy Selected Lines, example:
My intent here is to put exactly this into the clipboard:
01 : The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs.
01a : The quick brown dog jumped over the lazy foxes.But after I execute Copy Selected Line(s) I obtain (in the clipboard):
01 : The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs.
01a : The quick brown dog jumped over the lazy foxes.
02 : The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs.
02a : The quick brown dog jumped over the lazy foxes.Steps To Reproduce
- See Description above
Current Behavior
Less than obvious copying behavior.
Expected Behavior
Better behavior would be to only copy the "Line" data from lines touched by the stream selection the user has made.

As a convenience functionality, if there is no selected text at time of right-click, and...
- ... the line right-clicked is a Pathname line, copy the data for all Line text hierarchically below that Pathname (until either the following Pathname -- or Search line -- is encountered)
- ... the line right-clicked is a Search line, copy the data for all Line text hierarchically below that Search line, for all Pathnames (until the following Search line is encountered)
