Tooltips and Especially the problem field of the problems toolview contain info one would usualy like to copy to clipboard.

User story: User works on some code. User sees there are Problems he doesn't understand the nature of. user wants to copy the error from the Problems toolview to paste in a search engine of his choice to get a better understanding of the error.

Currently you can only copy stuff into the selection (not clipboard) from the tool-tip. some people aren't comfortable with selection, some people prefer using the clipboard. KDE is all about choice, so having both could be nice.

In MS Visual Studio, you can only select the whole error table row (including stuff you would have to clean up after pasting in the user story scenario). Be smart. Don't be like MS Visual Studio.
