           Summary: Copy key sequence doesn't work in non-editable areas.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 526+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Qt
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: elbunce at thehive.com


Can be demonstrated using QtLauncher from SVN r35408.
1) Navigate to any site.
2) Make a selection in a non-editable text area.  Note that the Copy action is
now enabled.
3) Use the local copy key sequence (CTRL+C, etc.) 
4) Attempt to paste into your favorite text editor, note you'll get the
previous clipboard contents since the copy will not have been performed.

This is because it is only checked for in editorActionForKeyEvent(), the
calling of which is inappropriate outside of editable areas.
