Bug Description
Calibre 5.31.1 (x64)
When right-clicking on a composite column link in book details, some of the copy options are missing.
Steps to replicate:
1. Have a composite text-based column, not shown as HTML. {identifiers:
2. In book details, right-click on a clickable item from an inbuilt column (tags, authors, etc). Under copy, there's several additional options, such as copying the text or creating a search link.
3. Now right-click the composite column. The options are missing.
Thank you!

Yes, those extra actions use information present about the column that
is absent from a composite column, which is basically a string that is
the result of running an arbitrary computation. There is no way to know
how to construct a search or similar from it.
