Once a text is highlighted, a list of options should popup like when you right click, which should have copy, go to url, open in new tab etc. Sometimes we come across website address which is not hyperlink, instead of highlighting that and copying the same, if a popup shows an option to open that site in a new tab, that makes it easy for us to navigate.
