Copying the location URL does not include protocol (e.g., "http://") even when the URL is unchanged

Build ID: 20150404032140
Steps to reproduce:
Copy a URL from the location bar.
Actual results:
Often, the protocol ("http://") is missing when pasted.
Expected results:
The protocol should have been included when the URL was copied. Excluding it means that in many other applications a pasted URL is not automatically turned into a clickable link, so I have to manually type it. An alternative solution is to show the protocol always (as it does with "https://") so the user has the option of selecting it to copy or not.
