Hi!

This is a forward of a bug report I got through the debian bug tracking

This only happens if one tries to copy text from the upper part of the
chat window. It works in the edit field below. 

The reason is, as far as I understand, that the edit widget always has
the focus and gets the keyboard input. So even though you just selected
some text in the upper widget, the ctrl-c goes to the lower one, which
just ignores the event because there is nothing selected within it's
context.

Is there an easy solution for this behaviour?
