Attaching. The patch is for IMP 6.1.4 but i believe it will be possible to apply it also to 6.1.5. Apply it like this:
cd dir/to/imp
patch -p1 < imp_copy_email.patch

Copying text to clipboard using javascript appears to be impossible in all browsers except IE. There are lots of workaround solutions on the net but all of them are using Flash (brrrr). My solution is not the best but it's working :) btw, icon for context menu option needs to be added, also CSS is missing.
