Hello, thank you for this great media player! A constant pet peeve of mine is that the the "Copy" action on the filepath of a song copies it as an escaped URI instead of simply copying the filepath as it is shown.

So instead of it copying to clipboard:

~/Music/chiptune/keygenmusic/KEYGENMUSiC MusicPack/TFT/TFT - Feeding Frenzy 2 crk.xm

it copies:

file:///home/danb/Music/chiptune/keygenmusic/KEYGENMUSiC%20MusicPack/TFT/TFT%20-%20Feeding%20Frenzy%202%20crk.xm

Which cannot be used with any basic shell commands or file managers. It's even worse with non-latin characters!

If someone does indeed have a want for the URI, we could support both ways by making the filepath selectable text widget, i.e. you can highlight the filepath with the cursor and copy it.

This has already been reported as #1174. The next release will contain the fix.
