Comment (by Eben):

 One thing it occurs to me we will need in order to support branching of
 objects is a "duplicate" or "copy" functionality. In a sense, both of
 these are akin to a "keep" action, where the target location for the
 action is either the same or different, respectively.  We need to make
 sure that this type of functionality is accessible without the need for
 drag'n'drop, and so we'll probably need a button for this within the Entry
 toolbar.  It will most likely be a palette button, which provides a list
 of targets in its palette.  Just like any other button in the entry
 toolbar, this will naturally extend to allowing duplication or copying of
 a number of selected items at once.

 This seems like a post trial 2 goal, though, since it will require a bit
 more visual design and more care in implementation.
