Hi Maxime,

Good to see you here :-)

This topic has been discussed recently on Twitter. See
https://twitter.com/jeremyckahn/status/474259042005553154

I'm like Rick's answer in particular
https://twitter.com/rwaldron/status/475017360085364736
as I believe a large share of cloning is just about data

As discussed in this Twitter thread, immutable data structures would be an interesting idea too. If an object is guaranteed to be deeply immutable, then, it can be passed around without the need for cloning. Clones are only necessary because the initial object is mutable in the first place.
Immutable data structures have been briefly discussed here recently:

Thanks for your answers.

Object.assign seems good but provides only copy for enumerable
properties, not a real deep clone.

I know for jquery, that's why i precised "only for DOM" but it was
just to show the syntax :)

Hi All

Do you know if it is planned or maybe in discussion for ES7 to have a
simple clone system on objects ?

There are different notations, from :

  - jquery

Object.clone( [withDataAndEvents ] [, deepWithDataAndEvents ] )

jQuery doesn't clone objects, it clones DOM elements.

Rick
