"Copy Data Path" should Copy FULL Data Path

When I'm scripting and I want to add the Default Cube's location, for example - I copy data path and paste and it gives me:

<b>location</b>

...This is totally unhelpful and time wasting. Rather, when I right copy data path it should give me:

<b>bpy.data.scenes['Scene'].objects['Cube'].location</b>

This is a must and I'm surprised if this hasn't been suggested before. I know it's like this to be driver friendly so maybe have a "Full Data Path" option along side the shorthand one. Thanks for any comments and ups or downs.

I agree. would be better to have both choice. and be able to show full (untruncated) tooltip

I guess this one status can be changed to "Implemented" or something.
