Address bar executes copy command twice

Reported by doubleba...@gmail.com, Oct 17 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version       : 61.0.3163.100 (Official Build) (64-bit) (cohort: Stable)
URLs (if applicable) : N/A
Other browsers tested: N/A

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Navigate to any URL
(2) Click on the address bar
(3) Press CTRL+C

What is the expected result?
"Copy" fires once

What happens instead?
"Copy" fires twice
 
Components: UI>Browser>Omnibox
I don't understand what is meant by: "Copy" fires twice.
I have an app that logs what goes into my Windows clipboard. In a web page, copying text gets logged once. In the address bar, copied text is logged twice.
Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
The Windows clipboard allows multiple formats / types of content.  When you press copy in the omnibox, we copy the URL as a text string and the URL in a URL format into the clipboard.  When you paste into another app, the other app decides what format it wants to use when pasting the clipboard contents.

This is working as intended.
