This is now in SVN. Together with a new procedure gimp-layer-new-from-visible in the PDB. Oh, and I also added Edit-Paste as-New Layer.

In fact, I would suggest calling it Duplicate Visible in the menu, and also adding it to the buttons at the bottom of the layers dialog with a description of Duplicate visible layers as single new layer on mouse-over.
