Description
It would be better if the text is selected when the user clicks (focus) on a read-only textarea, especially when it's meant to be copied, for example in the Network Setup section, a user has to copy-paste in the wp-config.php or the .htaccess file.

When you just want to select a specific part of the textarea's content, 42193.patch does not work great.
Another option would be to add a copy button. Just click on it to put the content into the clipboard.
The regular permalinks setup could benefit from such a change as well.
