This proposal adds a control to copy the selected link, which is a common editing action. This feature also brings a bit of editing parity with Google docs.

This reduces the current flow where to copy a link, you need to:

  • Click the edit icon, then click into the link field and finally copy the contents of that field.
  • Click the title within the link preview (opening a new tab), click into the browser URL/search bar, then copy its contents.

Note this visual is based on the changes proposed in #53654.

Let's put copy at the end of the three icons: edit, unlink, copy.

Should "Copy" have the full link in a tooltip?
