Description
**Describe the bug**
Right-clicking on selected text in SQL query editor brings up "run snippet" menu rather that native text controls. I want to be able to use the native menu to copy/paste text. I'm injured at the moment (one handed) and unable to effectively input keyboard chords/shortcuts. I have to switch back and forth between mouse and keyboard a lot more than should be necessary.

**Anything else**
🙏 Thank you for this amazing product.

Research direction
Start in the SQL query editor's context-menu handling; the issue does not name a file or test. Reproduce by selecting text and right-clicking, then verify that the native copy/paste menu remains available instead of the “run snippet” menu.
