Copy to clipboard button

We already have a “copy to clipboard” button for the link of the entity itself.

But sometimes there are fields that could be really comfortable to be able to copy in one click.

For example, sometimes we want to be able to copy a name of an entity quickly from the list of one to many entities.

I believe that adding an action to a button to store a specific value to clipboard would help to achieve this.

Perhaps this should be a separate request, but it’s related:

I’d like to be able to:

  1. Select multiple entities in (e.g.) a Table view
  2. Hit Ctrl+C
  3. Go to a Rich Text field somewhere
  4. Hit Ctrl+V
  5. Have my copied entities pasted as links :+1:

You might be able to do this with a Fibery button and a script.

But the Scripting is in Node.JS 12 and I need it on the latest version of Node to make this easy.

I don’t think it will be possible to copy to clipboard using a standard button - the actions that are triggered by a button are executed on the backend, so they can’t affect the browser/OS.
