Issue Description

When selecting a text in the info panel and pressing Ctrl+C, the selected cell in the data browser is copied instead of the selected text in the info panel.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open data browser.
2. Open info panel.
3. Select cell in data browser so that info panel loads with text.
4. Select text in info panel.
5. Press Ctrl+C --> the text copied is from the selected cell, not the selected text in the info panel

Environment

Dashboard

That one might be a bit tricky. A few notes from my investigation:

• similar cases are handled already, e.g. when edit row popup gets opened. There's a function in Browser.hasExtras() that checks for various state variables, and if any of it is true - keyboard actions are ignored in data browser;
• approach from the point above might not work in case of the info panel. This is because we still need data browser responding to keyboard actions, to e.g. handle navigating with arrow keys;
• I tried with a solution that relies on window.getSelection(), a checks if there's a selection, and if selected node is within info panel. I found it not fully reliable, as it requires un-selecting text to copy data browser cell again;
• I can see following solution sensible: when info panel receives a click - remove selection in data browser. Exactly this happens when I click on a cell, and then click on "Filter" menu option at the top. This would solve the problem with ctrl+c being captured by data browser, as cell no longer will be selected. EDIT: well, not really. In case of no selection info panel shows "No object selected.".

Not good, as now the cursor keys can be used to browse through rows while the mouse can be used to scroll & click in the data panel, so that's currently an efficient combo.

I think this would be a good solution; the question to solve may be why that is not reliable.

An alternative would be to add notepad icons to each field that copies the field value on click. These icons could become visible only on mouse hover over the respective field, as to not impair the visuals with a ton of icons.
