[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

This is not a bug, its a suggestion.

It would be pleasant if these two functions would behave similarly
whenever we dont have marked files: the later one returns filename for 
next ARG files (or file in the current line if ARG nil), which i found useful.
The former one report an error and exists.

I found better if `ibuffer-copy-filename-as-kill' behaves as the 
dired function in that situation.

Attached two patches:

*) one over emacs-v24.5 ibuf-ext.el
*) another including patches from bug reports #21576, #21577.
