In Drupal 6, when enabled, the upload module presents a handy list of all the files attached to a Page node. The list includes the file URL in plain text for convenient copy & paste into the Page node body. E.g.

D6 Upload Module Listing

Drupal 7 replaced the upload module functionality with file fields in core. The listing provided by this functionality does not display the file URL. E.g.

How can I conveniently copy and paste the file URL using this Drupal 7 method?
