  The current button / menu looks out of place to me, like it was just randomly put there. I am not sure what would look better, perhaps there's a HIG for this, otherwise, I think this needs input from a UI designer. Just "dumping" a button in there makes it look too random and unpolished.
  
  How about making the text selectable so it can be copied and being done with it?

  That would in principle mean to copy every bit of information in kinfocenter to its individual modules. Let's not do that.
