get tabular data more easily

It would be useful to be able to copy and paste tabular data in the "view additional details" popup window. I can use keyboard shortcuts, but the header row is not copied. Also, many users don't know how to do this and browser settings may prevent this from working. A button or link would be ideal. Whichever tab you have open would be copied to clipboard.

On a similar topic, the ability to copy and paste a subset of the content, from, say the Details tab would be great. The user would highlight the desired text and either right click for context menu with copy option, or use a link on the window.

Thanks.

  Agre. Highlighting text from the HTML5 viewer's result panel (Expanded view) is almost impossible and very frustrating. It's like you have to click on 1 or 2 pixels near the edge of the cell and click n drag back.
  
  I mean let's be real here: why do you think GIS users need to see information and DataLink queries in the table? - they need it to COPY it somewhere else ; to search in other systems, or to paste as the title of a Print for example.. At the moment, I have to tell my users "sorry! write it down on a piece of paper then type it again" -- seriously
