Bug Description
At present a left or right click on track information in indicator-sound copies the track information to the clipboard. To bring focus to a music player a user needs to click it's name. At least in my personal case, instinctively, in an effort to bring focus to my music player I left clicked the track information.
[Idea from Sam L] I think it would be a good idea to have left click bring focus to the player and allow for right click to copy the track information to the clipboard. Bringing focus to the player seems like it would be a more useful role for left click especially since right click can be used to preserve the clipboard functionality.
[Idea from Conscious User] I personally think that a more elegant solution would be merging the app name and track name into a single item.
