Bug Description

It'd be really helpful if one was able to copy stacktraces from the `apport-gtk` dialog. I guess, the function is useful for all other parts of the report displayed in the dialog as well.

The system dialog for any crash report does not allow me to copy the text from within the dialog box. Nothing works; no right click context menu option, no ctrl + c, no ctrl + a, nothing.
