I have reworked the copy menu items and committed a change.
Control-C copies the GNUBGID  (Position+MatchID) as it did before.
Control-M copies the MatchID only
Control-P copies the PositionID only
Menu items have also been added for each.

All three forms can be pasted with Control-V.

Will be in the next Windows build (Probably this evening).
