"Copy" action for calendar events [duplicate]

I would like to see a "Copy" action (besides the current "Edit" and "Delete" actions) when long-tapping a calendar event (on the month view page) or in the pulley menu of the event view page. It would open up the event editor just like when editing the event (ie. all the attributes of the event are loaded into the editor), but saving the event would create a new event, leaving alone the old one. (Also the feature of refusing to save an identical event would be a plus.)

There is an overlapping feature request, but i argue that it's not a duplicate of that: https://together.jolla.com/question/8404/copy-paste-entries-in-calendar/

That feature request proposes a clipboard-like copy&paste / cut&paste functionality, while this one is just about a very basic (and i suspect, much easier to implement) feature to open the "new event" editor using the existing event as a template.

I am used to aCalendar on Android which simply allows using an existing event as "blueprint" for a new event. Quite handy if you have irregular recurring events.
