Hmmm. Interesting idea. I hadn't thought of using "clone" instead of
"paste". Now that I've tried it, though, the timing seems to be
exactly the same.

And I have to admit that I've never even looked at the "Replicate..."
menuItem, even though I use "Duplicate" all the time. However, I need
to script the copying, so this isn't going to be an option, even if it
did turn out to be faster.
