Dear Whireshark Developer,

if you copy the frame summary to the clipboard, the content also contains
details from hidden columns. But based on my expectations, hidden details
shouldn't be copied.

Steps to reproduce: 
 1. Open a trace file
 2. Right click to the first frame in package list -> Copy -> Summary as Text
 3. Paste the clipboard content into a text editor
 4. Open the preferences dialog and add a new column (e.g. title "IP ID", type
custom, field name: "ip.id") and uncheck "Displayed" box 
 5. Right click to the first frame in package list -> Copy -> Summary as Text
 6. Paste the clipboard content into a text editor
 7. Compare both lines -> the content of the hidden column is copied

Please change this behaviour.

Regards,
Carsten
