I suspect this might be a feature request but I thought Id ask here in case theres a way to accomplish this using the existing feature set.
Heres the scenario...
1. select multiple items of a branch in the Child Items pane (many of these children are in fact hierarchical)
2. copy
3. Paste -> Copy Single to a new branch
This is great because I lose all the hierarchy behind the pasted items. However, I also lose the logical link to the original items themselves. Id like to maintain the link so that if I update the original Child Items name or other attributes, the copied (linked) items also update.
I guess Id like a Paste->Link without hierarchy - if that makes sense
