Absolutely.  Two solutions would be:

1) Add a button that copies the current fetched address (i.e. translated 
search url, redirect, or clicked-link address) to the clipboard (or even 
directly to the searchterms box).

2) After saving the user-entered searchterms to the pull-down menu 
(functionality which already exists) automatically update the 
searchterms with the final fetched address.

Of the above, I prefer (1).
