To the contrary, clones are exactly what I want.  These are code shared by 
a number of similar programs.  If I fix a bug or make an improvement in 
one, I want it to happen in all of those programs.  If I were not using 
Leo, I'd put these nodes into a little python file and import it.  But with 
Leo, I don't have to manage yet another file nor remember where it is in 
the future, nor make sure it's on the python path.

Clones are what I want.
