Copy a date from the calender in top bar

Question

I have already seen this question. However, this allows you to copy (and paste) only the current date.

Let us say that you have displayed the calender in your top bar.

enter image description here

Then you select a particular date (not the current date) by clicking on it.

How do I copy the selected date so that it can be subsequently pasted?

(If the above can not be done, is there a particular tool or chain of commands which can be used for the purpose?)

Excellent question, badly in need of a good answer – Sabacon Nov 15 '15 at 15:40 — Sabacon, Nov 15 '15 at 15:40

Is not that a bit too much to copy a date? How is that better than simply keying-in the date? – Masroor Jan 15 '14 at 16:00
You're right, sorry. – Dusan Milosevic Jan 15 '14 at 16:08
