It would be great if you could copy the link location of a history entry from
the history window to the clipboard; e.g., to post into a mail message.
actually this should be working. it could be busted in the same way that
delete-from-history is currently busted (Wierd JS scoping issues local to the
commercial client)
you should also be able to drag & drop from history to the compose window...
(removing [rfe] since this should be working)
Summary: [rfe] implement copy-link-location in history → copy-link-location in history is broken
Yeah, I discovered that drag-and-drop works! (Which is good enough for my
sinister needs...)

My first attempt was to right-click to get a context menu, but that doesn't seem
to work. (No context menu came up -- bug?)

My second attempt was to copy using Edit->Copy, but that didn't seem to put
anything on the clipboard that mail compose could understand.

Anyway, feel free to close this if it's covered by other bugs.
Yeah, like I said in the other bug, I think copy needs to be fixed too...it has 
the same (oddly) broken usage of the global var within the member function that 
delete does.
argh.. take two at reassigning history bugs to new owner
