           Summary: Copying selection in contact gives full, raw vCard
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: tokoe kde org
        ReportedBy: frans.englich telia com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

If I select a contact(info view  shows up in in the right frame) and:

1. selects text in it, such as the email
2. Copy it(Ctrl+C)
3. Paste it somewhere

I get the full vCard output, not the text I selected.

This is inconsistent with how copy&pasting usually work(it is direct manipulation/WYSIWYG), and not what the user intended.

I understand it can be interesting to insert the vCard as a whole into the clipboard, so I suggest that a text entry is inserted /if/ the user has /selected/ text.
