This isn't a very good solution as it clashes with items in the edit
menu.
You need something that clearly states that this generates a file in the
same format as "Save".
What do you copy to? A clipboard? A file? Some magic buffer?
I think I've prefer "Export" to "Copy to", even if this is even more
difficult for the user to interpret.
