307364 - Live bookmarks orange icon menu should have "clipboard copy" feature

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 254871

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, enhancement)

Description

[Joseph Shelby]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

I find that many sites are now using Mozilla's Live Bookmarks support to
advertise their RSS feeds.  This is fine as it keeps the cluttering "orange"
icon out of their own page where it may not really fit.

However, it means that for me to subscribe to the feed in some other agregator
(I use LiveJournal's syndication and Thunderbird as my main readers), I have to
view source, search for the correct meta tag and do a complex select/copy/paste.

It would be nicer if the orange icon that mozilla uses to give the user the
ability to subscribe would also have the ability to just copy the feed URL into
the clipboard so i can quickly paste it directly into the reader of my choice.


Reproducible: Always
