Details

STR: - Open the devtools console - Select any element shown in the DOM tree - Hit Cmd+C (on OS X, or ctrl+c on other desktop platforms) Expected: - The highlighted element's HTML (e.g. "<body>") is copied to the clipboard and can be pasted somewhere else. Actual: - Nothing gets copied to the clipboard.
This got fixed by bug 968241, which will be in FF42.

Thanks! I just tried it and it's copying the entire outerHTML which is not what I was expecting but I guess better than not copying anything :).
