Nothing is so hard about it. I think the questioner simply expressed
an observation that selecting the text, F8, enter would be one step
shorter, and thus preferable to them. Using a service with a keyboard
shortcut could be one step shorter still: select the text, keystroke
(or "grab").

As Patrick noted and you reiterate, copying is a fairly universal
action that presents little or no difficulty to most users. I don't
think the question is about the difficulty of performing the keystroke
sequence so much as its conceptual focus: if you have to copy the text
anyway, why use the quick input panel at all when you could just
Cmd-Tab to Yojimbo and create the note normally?

(Personally, I'm content with the present mechanism as well, but I
enjoy the exposure to different usages and workflows provided by these
mailing lists, so I like to play devil's advocate now and then to see
how easily different approaches can be facilitated.)
