BHS apparatus reorders copied text

When I select a part of a verse in BHS and copy it to the clipboard, the right-to-left text flow is broken wherever there is a reference to the apparatus - the superscripted, lower-case, roman letters.

So, highlight the first five words of Micah 6:8,

Copy it to the clipboard and paste it into a note and this is what appears,

The opening ngd has shifted to the end of the sentence (leftmost position) because the right to left text flow has reset on the 'a' superscript. 

This happen consistently. The only work around I have found is to check the "Reformat" option in the Visual Filters section, but this also turns off the verse numbers which is inconvenient.

In general copying a part of a verse seems unnecessarily awkward, the whole engine seems geared to copying entire verses. Is there a simple way to just copy the highlighted Hebrew text to the clipboard?

    This works for me:-

    If i include the verse number, though, it appears on the left side.
