As it stands now, when you highlight one or more items in the Child Items/Search Results Pane, select Edit>Copy, and then Paste in an external program (Word, Excel, etc), only the Item Titles for all selected items are copied to the clipboard and thus pasted in the external application.
It would be handy if the data for each attribute column in the Child Items/Search Results Pane were also included on the clipboard, ideally in tab-separated format which is the way MS Office apps work when copying "cell" based text into external apps. Then it would be possible to copy items AND their displayed attributes, from UR and paste into an external app like Excel, Word, Outlook, etc.
