Clarify behavior of object names on workboard cards
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

See https://discourse.phabricator-community.org/t/cannot-copy-task-id/3246.

Currently, the object names on workboard cards (like T123) have "cursor: text" and "user-select: text" hints in CSS. This makes it look like you can select them, but actually selecting them is difficult since the DraggableList drag start behavior eats the event.

We should either permit interaction with these names as text or remove the hints that they're interactable text.

For now, I'm going to try permitting this interaction. It's possible that this will harm users who like dragging cards by the object name (or like not caring where they're grabbing cards), but the name itself is already a link and not draggable and this doesn't cause issues. This is also likely to land roughly alongside the visual changes in T13442 so there will be some amount of visual hint that things have changed which may smooth things over here.
