Copy deploy templates

Currently if we want to provide a new deploy template for our self-service portal users, we have to create it from scratch starting with the image. I have recently had a couple of engagements where a number of templates were needed (from the same image), but with different characteristics such as CPU allocation. There were a number of configuration items applied to each deploy template, so it would have been a lot easier if it had been possible to 'copy' a new template. You could select he new name (I'd assume the image being used would have to stay static), but you could 'edit' the new image just as you can now to change the required parameters, e.g. CPU allocation.
