Feature Request

It's currently not possible to select and copy text in the Disassembly View.

This is often relevant when writing bug reports in particularly gnarly scenarios involving third party code.

Currently, I routinely have to launch up Visual Studio to do that.

It doesn't have to allow for arbitrary selections; i.e. it would be fine if the granularity of the selection was limited to whole instructions.

Needed this also to copy to generated asm and optimizing or modifying it, Also to check compiler optimization and compare optims, And use ASM code in other tools to analyze it
