It does iterate over all annotations, your code also
copies FSs that are not annotations.

Your code is fine, but there is now a convenience method
for accessing all indexed FSs of a certain type. So you
could simply do:
FSIterator fsIterator = jcas.getJFSIndexRepository().getAllIndexedFS(TOP.type);
Note that in your code, if you have more than one index for the
same type, you will copy some FSs more than once. You can avoid
this by using the above convenience method.
Or even simpler:
CasCopier.copyCas(CAS aSrcCas, CAS aDestCas, boolean aCopySofa)
However, I assume you saw this and have good reasons for not
using it :-)
