I wonder if I can get away with suggesting some additional
functionality?

Quite often, as I take notes about what I see happening, I want to
note just what version of LO is involved.  Perhaps others around here
do the same thing.

So, we could make LibreOffice copy its identification to the clipboard
in a form suitable for pasting into a Writer document (yes, I usually
have two versions of LO running), or into an email, or into a bug
report.  This could be available either as a button on the About
dialog or as an option on the Help menu.

The benefit, if there *is* any benefit, would come from
consistent-looking emails and bug reports.  The actual effort of
copying selected info is so small as not to justify much programming
effort.

Just a random idea,
Terry.
