copy title information to clipboard

What would the use case for this be?

In my case i often listen to web radios and often they're playing nice songs. If i like them, i write them down, to buy them in ubuntu one music store, i-tunes, or whatever. I could imagine, that other people do the same, too. A problem is, that not all players support a "current - title - copy -function", or it is impossible to copy them to the clipboard (e.g. rhythmbox, banshee, ...). The great feature would be to simply get that information from panflute applet. Another case could be, to write the current title when texting in social networks, or messangers (if current playing doesn't exist). Thanks for developing panflute and thanks for your attention.

i tinkered a little to get it work for me (based on current maverick release), maybe you find that useful, if you decide to implement it.
ps: sorry, i am not familiar to patching & codeing...
