Copy filter strings when adding new string

When creating a new filter string in RSE, would like to be able to copy library, source file, member, and type criteria from the existing filter and edit.


Use Case:

User selects a filter string and clicks 'Copy'.
The selected filter's strings are copied to the input fields and the "New filter string" entry is selected.
User then makes needed changes to the new filter and clicks Create.
