There have certainly been times where I've wanted to copy text that was not
selectable for some reason (or selectable but not copyable), but it sounds like
you have a much higher expectation of text selectability than I do.
Cases that frustrate me:
1. In filing a bug report, I need to input the version number. For Internet
Explorer, I bring up the "About Internet Explorer" dialog box. The version is (I
kid you not) a 55 character string of random digits and letters. I want to
cut&paste this. Not possible.
2. I get a dialog box popping up with an error message in it. I want to google
the error message. Have to retype it.
3. Thunderbird Mail lets me import/export the address book. But not account
settings. So I want to select and copy the account settings dialog box. Nope.
Really, what's the case for not supporting this? Am I really a unique snowflake?
