Is your feature request related to a problem?

If you want to make an edit of an existing loadout as a new loadout, the process is very tedious.

You either use the "New Loadout" option and re-add everything, since "New Loadout" leaves you with a completely blank loadout, or manually copy the Passive Tree, Item Set, Config Set, and Skill Set from your current loadout and name them all the same. This takes a lot of time for what is sometimes a few minor tweaks.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice if, in the New Loadout Naming Menu, or even as a seperate "Copy Loadout" button below the New Loadout button, there was an option to copy either the current loadout or an existing loadout, in a similar manner to how making a copy of a skill tree, item set, etc. works.

Research direction

Start by locating the New Loadout Naming Menu and the existing copy behavior for skill trees, item sets, config sets, and skill sets. Done means a current or existing loadout can be copied as a new loadout with its component sets retained and given a name.
