 There seem to be a limit when copying records in the table of attributes
 and pasting them into a text editor. I have tested a few vectors and the
 limit seems to be around 65000 columns (it copy/paste also the nodes
 coordinate, that translates in different columns for each node). I cannot
 find any reference about this limit (if is known).

 A warning should be shown when is the case, maybe when the "copy selected
 rows to clipboard (ctrl-c)" is clicked.

 In general I found of a little use to have copied/pasted also the nodes
 coordinates, so it will see very well suited a checkbox to choose copy or
 not also the nodes coordinates.
