Research direction

Start by locating the log widget and its current line-selection behavior. Verify how selection and copying work, then make completion mean that a user can select individual words or other regions within a log line and copy only that selection.

Description

Component: UI Effort: Medium Impact: Low UI: Logs

In the log widget, you can only select entire lines, not specific regions. It would be useful to select (for copying) individual words from lines, and not just entire lines.
