Currently there is no easy way to copy query results and paste them into an email (using a monospaced font) or a text editor and have the columns & headers lined up. While the column data for a row looks to be tab separated it is often not an option to be able to manipulate tab spacing to make the data line up.
It would be nice if there was a copy option (with headers) that would pad out each of the column's data such that all of the column's data lines up instead of using tab.

I do know about the "Text Results" (vs the Grid Results) which is the kind of column spacing indicated above. I think there is value is having the same type of ability ad-hoc from the Grid results which would allow you to pick and choose rows & columns (via reordering). I'm often pulling large sets of data and then selectively picking rows and columns to "cut out" and paste elsewhere.
Any chance this item could be bumped up in priority? This is one of the few things left that cause me to switch to using other tools.

Copy data in required format through Copy As... option. Please refer format_copy.png

Obviously I can't test this yet, but looking at the screen shots it's unclear what the end result is... can you screen shot the resulting copied text pasted into a monospaced editor? The copy options don't make clear that the end result is white space padded output. It doesn't look like there is column header option?
