Galeon allows you to right click on a link in this dialog and select
"copy location".

Admittedly, switching browsers it not a good solution. However, if
Galeon could implement it you would think the Mozilla people could add
it without much trouble too. I would recommend putting in a feature
request to the Mozilla people (I don't know how to do this though).
