Not all text in details view of an add-on are selectable.  This means that bug #616437 was not completely implemented.  

The first attachment shows the details page for Chatzilla before I selected all (Ctrl-A).

Attachment: Add-On Detail for Chatzilla -- text selected

The second attachment shows the result of "select all" (Ctrl-A) on the detail page for the Chatzilla add-on.  When I copied the selected text and pasted it into a text editor -- trying both Notepad and Wordpad -- only the highlighted text was pasted WITHOUT and line breaks.  Thus, the result was:

ChatZillaA clean, easy to use and highly extensible Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client.

This should have at least been:

ChatZilla
A clean, easy to use and highly extensible Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client.  

However, the rest of the text on that page should have also been selected and copied.

Attachment: cZ details with Select All in SeaMonkey 2.42a1

UA:"Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0 SeaMonkey/2.42a1" ID:20151212003002 c-c:ee0054018a7f3248e625679d80d9111aac25facb m-c:694a530e236564a3d9f4b9fd7d9e96ae782b3a7b en-US

I somewhow get some fuller text in this trunk build of SeaMonkey, but neither does it select everything (from bug 616437 comment #43 it seems that the assignee didn't find how to select anything else); and neither does a Paste add linefeeds between fields: this is what I get (as a single line):

ChatZillaA clean, easy to use and highly extensible Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client.ChatZilla provides all the usual IRC client features: multiple servers, a built-in list of standard networks, easy searching and sorting of available channels, logging, and DCC chat and file transfers, plus easy customization with JavaScript plug-ins and CSS styling.

Note the run-in after the first occurrence of "ChatZilla" and before the second one.
