Ability to copy a password into the buffer, so it can be pasted into the target application

[GoogleCodeExporter]

An enhancement request:

Please add the ability to copy a password to the copy buffer.
Most applications currently have no integration to any password safe, and 
to read and remember a non-trivial password of more than 10 characters in
the brief period it displays is proving to be a challenge for older brains,
and typing it is even more of a challenge on small keboards, especially
when shift and alt comes into play.
The ability to copy the password would allow it to be pasted into most of
these apps.
As further optional enhancements I could suggest the following:
1) A keystroke the copy the password rather than displaying it.  This
prevents spying eyes attached to more agile brains from reading the
password.  I suppose the username will still need to display.
Similar apps generally clear it's entries from the buffer when it closes,
to reduce the risk of unwanted pasting of the password.

When the secrets list is displayed, the user can highlight a given secret using 
the
scroll ball, and then use a new menu item called "To clip".  This will copy the
secret to the devices clipboard.  It can then be pasted into a text field in 
another
application.
