Description Joe Biden 2015-05-24 03:30:44 UTC

Right-clicking on a bookmark from the bookmark bar in Chrome and selecting "Copy", results in:

%00G%00a%00l%00l%00e%00r%00y%00 for a bookmark named "Gallery".

This appears as a weird "binary" placeholder in Klipper. Works oddly and wrongly since KDE 4 did the right thing and copy-pasted the URL only.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Chrome
2. Right click on bookmark from bookmark bar
3. Select "Copy" and try to paste anywhere

It looks like another Chrome issue - there are unfortunately lots of issues with Chrome copying the wrong data.

I did not completely understand one element: did this work in KDE4?
