 the display, instead of having to copy everything to the clipboard, copy
 that to a text editor and then pick out the elements you want. As an
 example: sometimes I just want to identify the coordinates of a place. It
 would be nice to be able to click on it and then directly copy the values
 for easting and northing from the query results window.

 Yes, sorry. I got confused between versions here. The grass6 solution also
 works well, by the way. I'm just afraid that it will be a bit confusing
 for users to see two different reactions to the same action (either
 editable attributes or output to console).

 > It is different than in grass 64, it is more consistent. But needs some
 improvemnets. Could you create a ticket for this? As for the coordinates,
 you can get them by right click on the map display.

 Thanks for the tip on coordinates (hadn't noticed this, yet, it's very
 practical !), but my remark was more general. I'll file a ticket.
