Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: empathy
CONTEXT
Right-clicking inside the Empathy chat window creates a menu with up to
three options: 'Clear,' which clears the entire chat log; 'Copy' (if
text is selected); and 'Select All.'
PROBLEM
It is very easy to select 'Clear' when you mean to select 'Copy'. This
instantly blows away all the text in the chat window, including what you
were about to copy.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
A program's "self-destruct switch" will not be inconveniently placed
next to a commonly used option, or otherwise easy to trigger by
accident.
