🚀 feature request

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Yes. It's too much of a hassle to login.

Describe the solution you'd like Right now there is a login button that opens a browser window. For that to work, I'd have to login to Steam, get my security code there, then login to PoE website, then OAuth your app.
I do not want to login to either my Steam account nor my PoE account in your program's browser window.

Solution: Add a button that has a copy/paste symbol and give it a tooltip to describe what it does. Have this copy the OAuth request link to the clipboard so I can use it in the browser where I'm logged in to Steam/PoE. This works fine for ChaosRecipeEnhancer.

Super easy alternative: Enable the URL bar in the browser.

Describe alternatives you've considered I simply don't use Overlay right now.

I can't even get the program to launch half the time. Hopefully, this dev team will make the changes to get this running without the overwolf bloatware and security concerns of logging into accounts via their app sorted. I would love to support and use a standalone version of overlay.
