Description
In QGIS master fbc5f06, It's no longer possible to copy and paste the attribute table's content to external applications like calc or a simple text editor. The paste result only contains the table column names.
To recreate the problem, simply open the attribute table of a vector layer, select a few (or all) rows and press copy. Now try pasting it to a text editor.
Since this was working in 2.4 I will mark it as Blocker.

Not reproducable.  First three records from airports.shp (QGIS sample data) copied from QGIS 4ea5c80 to browser:

    Sorry for not having tested enough. I made a few more tests and this might be related with the Postgis provider only.
I can copy and paste the attribute table of a shapefile, dbf and even spatialite, but not from any of my Postgis tables.

Confirmed on QGIS master on Linux: ok with shapes, not ok with PostGIS.
