can't copy text out of a toggle tip (or other pop-over element)
Problem/Opportunity Statement
Toggle tips close when clicked on, which means if you try to select text with the mouse, the element disappears before you can do something like copy it to the clipboard. See video:

What would success / a fix look like?
It would be optimal if a user can copy text out of a pop-over element when they want to. A couple of ideas:
- Pop-over elements have an "X" in an upper corner, and the pop-over is only closed when that X is clicked
- Pop-over elements have a copy text button (similar to what Exosphere already has elsewhere in the app), which copies text to the clipboard
There's got to be some prior art / best practice on this.
