option to include headers when copying values from data grids

kingkeith

It'd be great if, when selecting rows in data grids and copying them to the clipboard, there could be an option to also include the headers.

e.g. new [] { new System.Drawing.Point(5, 6), new System.Drawing.Point(20, 19), new System.Drawing.Point() }



"Copy selection" currently puts this on the clipboard:

	False	20	19
	True	0	0

and selecting the whole thing (i.e. from the top left header square) gives us:

	False	5	6
	False	20	19
	True	0	0

it'd be great to have an item in that context menu to "Copy selection with headers", to get:

	IsEmpty	X	Y
	False	20	19
	True	0	0

which would obviously also take into account which columns are actually included in the selection, so that:



would result in:

X	Y
20	19
0	0

This would be insanely useful; my main use case for copying data out of a grid is for sharing the results in emails or IM's to colleagues, so unless there are only a couple of columns (which sadly in the Database there's not) I always have to stop and manually insert column headers before proceeding.
