Comment:
tl;dr: We need to decide if after clicking the 'Save as new' in a model
change view the user should be taken to the changelist like we are doing
or to the change view of the model instance just cloned as the OP
proposes.
The behavior of redirecting to the model changelist (or the admin app
index page) has been so since newforms admin was merged back in r8273
(with later fixups like the ones in #10448/r10713). And yes, AFAICT the
[https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/admin/options.py?rev=16422#L786
code block] in `ModelAdmin.response_change()` that supposedly handles this
has been dead code since its introduction in r8273.
