Feature request: Text selection in Log and RichLog

[mensinda]

Hi,

thank you for developing textual!

It would be nice if Log and RichLog had a built-in text selection feature, similar to TextArea. This would make copying logs a lot more user friendly.

I know that it is possible select text directly with the terminal, however, this approach has some drawbacks:

• Scrolling the log does not automatically scroll the selection
• A multiline selection goes over the entire with of the screen and not the widget content

We have a more comprehensive selection feature planned. It should cover just about everything, much like a web page.
