--- Comment #1 from Jarosław Staniek <staniek at kde.org> ---
Thanks for the report, Petr.

There is no support for multi-selection in Tabular View indeed. Changing the
summary to this topic as the feature would enable copying as you explained.

It would be a spreadsheet-like multi-cell selection, so this would work:
- selecting with  Control 
- selecting with Shift
- selecting entire column(s)
- selecting entire record(s)
- selecting entire data
- inverting the current selection
- editing/searching/clipboard actions would work for the current selection
- (I bet more is possible, a study based on spreadsheets and MSA/Filemaker is
welcome!)

Regarding filters, a wish is filed at
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277573, so removing this part from this
summary.

Please let me know if we can add more wishes or correct something.
