DESCCRIPTION
I was not able to copy the result of a calculation.

Pasting a number from clipboard seems to work.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am aware, that this is how old-school physical calculators used to work, but I think it is impractical in a modern Desktop, for the meta discussion, visit Ticket #463809.

Remove focus assignment as it seems unnecessary to me and breaks the
already implemented `StandardKey.Copy` functionality.
