Feature Description
Click to show often used information like app ID, title and pid to quickly copy or perform action like kill or add window rule.
Use Case
Would be immensely useful and reduce tedium of needing to manually copy and paste app id and title 50 times for making window rules.
or scrolling through menus to find the correct window in the window rule manager in dms settings or to kill a program from system monitor.
Particularly annoying for flatpaks and PWAs.
Would make the widget more useful for vertical bar where it is just a pretty icon now.

Proposed Solution
