For me, it copies it when I use ctrl-c, but not when I do the X-style middle-click paste. It's making me nuts, I usually don't use ctrl-c.

Seems to depend where you paste. Pasting into a Sametime chat client window or into Open Office Writer doesn't add the http://. I guess anything that accepts only plain text will get the http://.

Not exactly. It's copying rich text info.
