Description

If I select bnc#123456 then it will first pop up a menu offering only Bugzilla.Novell.Com or Cancel. If I select Bugzilla.Novell.Com then it expands the clipboard selection to the full URL, which causes a second pop-up menu with some available actions. In this case where the first step in the chain only has one option (or two including Cancel) then I think it should automatically skip to only displaying the second menu. However this should be done without disturbing the clipboard selection, in case I really want to copy and paste bnc#123456 rather than the expanded URL.

Research direction

Start by tracing how bnc#123456 is handled through the first and second pop-up menus, then inspect how the clipboard selection is preserved during expansion. Done means a first step with only one action skips directly to the second menu while leaving the original clipboard text unchanged.
