Richard,

I don't believe that the copy and paste functionality you are want will be possible as the browser does not have access to the client machines clipboard as more desktop apps do (due to security reasons). Now as far as having a right click functionally to present a context menu with a delete, this is very doable. I would recommend looking at the enhanced draw widget Tim Witt did for some code you can use. Enhanced Draw Widget

You can just go into editor, highlight the line or polygon segment, right click and delete vertices manually. Same goes for the copy and paste, the after pasting the highlighted feature is the copy.
