Running aptitude in an xterm I'd love to copy the Homepage
URL into the Xselection buffer to make it available to other
XWindow applications (e.g. Firefox, to paste it into an EMail,
etc.).

Currently I have to either manually type in the URL, leave
aptitude with ^C to make selecting text work, or to avoid
aptitude completely. The description, maintainer EMail
address and other text cannot be selected by the left button,
either. Surely this could be improved.

Many thanx
Harri
