Hmm. Under what circumstance would a paste-node *not* create a clone?

I sometimes use paste-node to create an independent copy of a node (and its
descendants). It's a way of cherry-picking a node from one branch to
another:

- Copy and paste a node *N* in branch A to a copy of N, say *N-Copy*.
- Close Leo, change to branch B.  *Never leave Leo open when changing
branches*.
- Open Leo. Now we're in branch B, but *N-Copy* contains the cherry-picked
node from branch A.
- Copy the body text of nodes from *N-Copy* to N. This changes N's text
while preserving N's gnx.
