I think we've decided to go in a different direction for
implementation, and my last communication was to suggest a mechanism
that would allow for something more clean using the copy options
refactoring.  I wouldn't even attempt to merge it unless there's big
outcry for the feature as-is, which I doubt there is.  But perhaps
it's worthy TODO fodder.

The mechanics in the email you replied to probably need more feedback to act.
