Arguably, we shouldn't be copying display:none'd text, but that's not something
that will be fixed in 1.1.  This behaviour can't ship in 1.1, though, because
"paste your error text at me" is a common support practice, and this will cause
a lot of pain.
that display:none gets copied is bug 39098

the patch in bug 280190 will make it so that the DOM only contains the current
error, and should thus make this a nonissue.
Depends on: 280190
Seeing the same on Linux. Expanding OS/HW to all.
OS: MacOS X → All
Hardware: Macintosh → All
Fixed by patches on bug 280190.
