  Well imho a menu is just as obstrusive, and it requires one more click to actually perform the copy operation.

  Oh I didn't even know that kinfocenter was a collection of kcm modules. I wonder if that should be implemented for all KCMs: currently the Help button in a stand-alone KCM just opens the kcm dockbook, maybe it could open the full-fledged Help menu?
