Feature Request/Idea: an additional button to copy the citation text to the clipboard

[CB-HAL]

Overview of the Feature Request
The new button should copy the citation text in the same form as shown in the citation area (without formatting in a special citation standard). At the moment there is only the funtionialty to download the formated citation.
The new clipboard-button should be somewhere in the blue citation area (see screenshot for mockup).

A similiar clipboard-button is already implemented for the file MD5 checksum, see screenshot.

That'd be great, I'm surprised there were no issues on this.
I'm wondering if it makes sense to do it in the old UI as it is just quality of life or wether it should go straight into the new Single Page Application

I would prefer that we implement this in the SPA, the new React code. @CB-HAL what do you think? Do you want to create this issue over at https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-frontend like @DS-INRA is saying?

[CB-HAL]

There is no hurry, SPA is ok.

@CB-HAL we do have a "copy citation" button as of Dataverse 6.6, thanks to that PR I mentioned above, #11163.

Can you please go to any dataset on https://demo.dataverse.org and try it out? You should see something like this:

Good enough? 😄 Please let us know!

[CB-HAL]

Perfect, that's more than I ever wanted ;-)

@CB-HAL great! Before we close this issue, would you mind creating a feature request in the issue tracker for the new frontend? It's over here: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-frontend/issues
