Yes, I did mean to make the string displayed in node path bar copyable.
By screen-scraping, I meant to convert an html file to well-formed xml,
and then to use paths discovered with xxe to create a stylesheet to
extract specific data.

Being able to copy the path to a selected node would be very convenient
for this.  I have already done it a few times, but of course could not
copy and paste the paths.
