    Description

      Although the context menu on the detailedText window offers a Copy option, neither the Copy option nor Ctrl-C copies the selected text to the clipboard.

      Since QMessageBox is used to report errors, users need to be able to copy the detailed text. The QMessageBox apparently was intended to support this, since the context menu offers the Copy option.
