1. Open the system information panel
2. Try to copy a version number to the clipboard

OBSERVED RESULT
Text and version numbers aren't selectable: it's not possible to copy version numbers to the clipboard.

EXPECTED RESULT
The system information panel should provide selectable text/version numbers, for example to paste them in bug reports.

Hello, I was about to submit a report about this but see it already exists. The text in the info center should be capable of being selected to copy/paste the information to another location. Please add this feature. Thank you.

Make value labels in form layouts individually selectable and copyable

If text in a value label is selected, Ctrl+C will copy that. Otherwise it will
copy the whole thing as usual.
