Hi,
I know that Gallery is really strict with security measures, and rightfully so, but surely you can allow text to be copied?
I've been messing with JFrames, JOptionPanes, JTextFields, JTextAreas and JLabels, but not one of them allowed any text to be copied.

This is the error I get when I try to use code to use the selectAll() method in JTextFields, and the Gallery also blocks me from manually selecting text and copying it.
Is there any way you guys (The Greenfoot Developers) can change this? I don't see how it can be a security threat if the user copies the text voluntarily...
