Description
Is it possible to add a copy path to the Directories tree item's context menu (right click)?
It would help with moving around files. Like I might want to keep new item with a downloaded item. Currently I have to open the move dialog, select the value in the dialog to get the actual path. After that I would open the move dialog of the new item and paste the path.
If I can copy the path from the tree item directly, I'd avoid accidentally move the existing item. Also I would have to open the move dialog only once, not twice.

Research direction
Start by locating the Directories tree item and its right-click context-menu implementation in the TypeScript frontend. Trace how the move dialog obtains and accepts paths, then add the copy-path action and verify manually that the copied directory path can be pasted into the move dialog without moving the existing item.
