Currently still in Nightly and only on 'Copy Link'. Still nice progress though.

Right now you have to go out of your way to select the "Copy without tracking params" from the context menu. It's not like it threatens Google's business model

If they do start changing them you'll need an uRemoveTheGoddamnTrackingParamsOrigin extension
