How to reproduce:
1. select some packet with mouse
2. right mouse click
3. select "Copy"
4. select "Bytes"
5. select "Hex Stream"

Even though I look at the packet, only portion of it that is selected in the
window below is copied.

When user selects the packet, this packet should be copied. What is selected
below should be irrelevant. Particular parts should be copied when user selects
them in the details window.

Same with "Binary Stream" copying.

In short, wireshark currently doesn't allow copying of the whole packets, which
is often of the primary interest for users.
