           Summary: Shortcut to copy file / location into clipboard
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified

SUMMARY

Feature request:

It would be very nice to be able to copy the absolute path to the currently
selected file/directory into clipboard.
I know this can be done using service menus and I'm aware of Bug 317877 , but
the usefulness of that solution is limited in that:

1. As far as I know, the service menu action cannot be tied to a keyboard
shortcut.
2. This way one can only copy the path to the currently selected path. However,
I would like the shortcut to copy the path to the current directory in case no
file is currently selected.

I also know that you can do Ctrl+L & Ctrl+C to copy the current path or use the
menu key (if available) to go to the context menu, or open the built-in
terminal and copy paths via xsel or the like, but all of these are sort of
hacky, unwieldy solutions (eg. Ctrl+L moves focus to the adress bar).

Having a simple keyboard shortcut that would copy the path using just one
shortcut would be very very useful to me, in particular while using a command
line and dolphin simultaneously, but also while going from dolphin to the web
browser and other applications...
