Here's a simple little idea that occurred to me, and since it's mine I've  
managed to convince myself that it's brilliant in it's own little way.

For anyone who puts their email address in the info panel, make that (the  
email address all by itself) a separate text object, and make it selectable.   
That way someone can get your email address by just triple-clicking on it  
and doing a command-c.  This would be nicer than requiring the person leave  
the info panel visible while they retype the email address by hand.
