User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:88.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/88.0

Steps to reproduce:

When an email address is present in a web page, a feature already exists in firefox such that when you right-click on the email address link (which is a mailto:) there is an option to "copy email address" When clicked, it copies the email address only and strips out the "mailto:" part of the link. I would like the same functionality for phone numbers. I'm on windows 10

Actual results:

At present, when you use "copy link" to copy a phone number, the "tel:" is attached to the front of the number in the clipboard. This is annoying because I copy phone numbers often in my work and only want the number iteslf.

Expected results:

I would love to have a "copy phone number" option that only copies a phone number and nothing more. (without formatting as well)
