blender/blender@8b2b79c210Short description of error
Exact same problem as #53361. Creating a new bug report per suggestion, but may want to follow the discussion on the task.
Original writeup:
I'm trying to use the "Copy Visual Location" and "Copy Visual Rotation" functions from the Copy Attributes addon to get around a problem in rigging a character.
(BlenderArtists post: https://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?440992-IK-FK-setup-Bone-position-changes-when-dialing-between-Child-Of-constraints)
Normally, copying visual transformation works perfectly fine. But when the bone having the visual transformation applied to has a Child Of constraint, the result is always offset. Demo:
Example file attached.
CopyAttributesVis.blend
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
To see the problem, you can download the .blend file and copy the steps as in the animated .gif. Here're written steps if needed:
You'll see that it doesn't do the expected behavior (snapping Bone A to exact location of Bone C), but is offset due to the Child Of constraint.

The behavior of "Copy visual location of Bone Middle to exact location of Bone Left", is working wrong due to the Constraint affecting bone Middle to copy bone Left (Loc,Rot,Scale).
What the Copy Attributes Add-on needs to take into account before doing the "Copy Visual Location" operation is to first check the constraint and how much it moves the bone and then counter that movement before placing it to it's new location.
Alternatively maybe it should just find movement vector between 2 visual locations in space and move exactly along that vector through space which is what humans do in this situation anyway, it just takes time.

@ideasman42 This report is currently tagged as Bug but not confirmed and it seems that nobody is working on this at the moment. Should this be confirmed and marked as a Known Issue?
