Short description of error
Copy Data Path command does not copy the entire text which is displayed by the Python tooltip.
You must manually type the path by looking at the tooltip.
Even worse, if the data path is too long (like in the attached image) the text is trimmed so you cannot even see it.
Changed status to: 'Open'

This shows the correct versus the incomplete data path which is copied to clipboard by the Copy Data Path command.
Changed status from 'Open' to: 'Archived'
The data path is only "incomplete" when using it as a one-off directly in the middle of a Python script. If used for any other purpose (e.g. driver), the version you refer to as being correct is certainly incorrect, and unsupported.
The Copy Data path fails to copy the full path to clipboard regardless of the way it will be used (coding, drivers, scripts, documentation, etc).
Because sometimes you cannot even see the full path it is impossible to obtain it.
If the tooltip can display the full path why can't the copy command copy it ?
