I doubt that. The paste-retaining-clones will not change anything from the 
clipboard content, but the user will expect this command to create new 
nodes at least for some of the copied tree. If you devise a new 
copy-template function, then after the first paste-retaining-clones 
execution every next execution will create just the clone of the outline 
pasted the first time i.e. all nodes will be cloned not just some of them.
