I'm not sure I understand what you mean by this. By "state" you mean the object attributes (instance variables). Wouldn't cloning an object merely copy the current state? Isn't this how Object.clone() works in Java--thus inherently supporting a way to "generically 'clone' an object in (a) meaningful way"?
