Describe the bug
When trying to select text in a footnote, it is not possible to copy the text to the clipboard. As a workaround, selecting the text and doing a web search results in the text being entered into the browser's search field. The text can then be copied and pasted as normal.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to footnote
  2. Try to copy/ share text
  3. Text is not copyrighted to clipboard.

Expected behavior
The selected text should be copied to the clipboard.
