User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:48.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/48.0
Build ID: 20160508004021

Steps to reproduce:

Hover over String variable in Devtools Debugger, then try to select the text.


Actual results:

Text is not selectable and cannot be copied. See screenshot


Expected results:

Make the text selectable so that it can be copied using Ctrl+C. 

I needed this a few times where I wanted to paste the value (String) of a variable to a fellow developer, but it was not possible. I had to retype the whole String by myself by hand.
