Copy and paste control loses property

Copying and pasting a TppdbText loses the DataPipeLine property (within same
report). To add to the confusion, the field combo on the toolbar still
shows the field list, but selecting a field does not change the property
until the datapipeline is set again.

Other suggestions for the designer:

Make more use of keyboard control -
* Allow selection of current control using cursor keys (as in Delphi forms).
* Send keystrokes to Object Inspector, esp when setting caption property
(try setting the caption property for each of 100 labels -click to select,
click caption property, start typing!)
