Marco,

While you're adding to the enhancement list, here's one that bugged me for years which should be really easy to fix.

I'm frequently finding an object in the browser (table, column, trigger, constraint, etc.), then right-click and select "Copy comma separated" since a simple "Copy Name" is not available.

When I paste the text of the single item copied into the script I'm writing, there's always an extra space on the end of the copied object name, which I then have to trim, and the name often has to be uppercased, in order to be used in WHERE predicates.

Would be great if there was a preference to uppercase text when copying the names of objects from the Browser.

And would be wonderful if a) the right-click option is "Copy name" when only one object is selected in the Browser, but "Copy comma-separated" when multiple objects are selected in the Browser, and b) if copying the name of a single object in the Browser, ensure there isn't trailing whitespace.
