Info's panel shows python code that lags behind 1 item when switching between panels

Open up the info panel.
Switch 3D View to the Logic Editor --> Info panel shows that you switched to VIEW_3D
Switch Logic Editor to Python Console --> info panel shows that you switched to LOGIC_EDITOR
... and so on

As someone new to Blender and somewhat to python, I find the info panel of tremendous value.

I know it's odd to comment here about this, but I'd like to gain Campbell's audience and I don't know how else to do that directly.

Could you add read-only copy support from the info panel so that commands can be pasted in the python console or the text editor?

I also think it would be very useful if there was a drop-down associated with the python console that would allow the console to work with other panel contexts. For example, if I want to type: bpy.context.object.key = 'A' in the context of the Logic Editor, I cannot. I receive an error because in the context of the python console, there is no 'key' member.

I'm happy to put feature requests elsewhere but it seems a very low probability that folks are willing or able to take much seriously simply due to volume and the range of types of users.

Thanks for your consideration.

@sjn, this is possible

RMB select or BKey to border select the info text
Ctrl+C to copy to the clipboard
Paste in PyConsole or Text Editor (or anywhere really)

Realize this is rather hidden functionality. For 2.5x project we meant to have a macro record/playback system, but this ended up not being well supported.
