Would be nice to have the option of being able to copy the link to a video that's currently playing and any videos of a playlist or search result while a video is playing.

While there isn't something quite like this implemented, the Youtube ID of the current song is displayed on the song progress line which can be copied. In addition, if you have a saved playlist you can open the .m3u file (~/.config/mps-youtube/playlists) where you'll see it has all of the video links for songs in the playlist.

I agree it would be nice to have this implemented in a more accessible way.

Edit: m3u playlists are only implemented in the develop branch currently I think.
