Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating the JSON entry display and its existing user interactions, then clarify whether copying applies to keys, values, or complete entries and what clipboard behavior is expected. Done means the agreed targets can be copied reliably and the behavior is covered by appropriate tests.

Description

Hi Team,
I'm enjoying using your software, but I'd love to see a feature that allows copying specific entries or values from JSON files. This would greatly enhance the user experience.
Thanks for considering!
