I believe the attached patch fixes this. With it, if you're in Edit Mode in
a cell, then Copy works more like it would in a regular text box - only the
highlighted text is copied, and there are no quotes etc. added. In View
Mode, whatever cells are selected will be copied, and quoting/delimiting
applied.

Can someone review it please (Dhiraj :-p )?

Thanks.
