Description
## Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Frequently there are cases where I want to add an edition that is almost an exact copy of an existing edition record. It would be useful to have the ability to make an instant duplicate of a record so that one can copy the details and simply modify the differences.
## Describe the solution you'd like
Ideally, a button "Make Copy" would bring up a list of populated fields with checkboxes for user to identify which fields to copy to the new record. (Internet Archive ID always excluded, of course.)
## Proposal & Constraints
## Additional context
For example, this record exists for an IA copy: https://openlibrary.org/books/OL2377707M/The_Book_of_Questions
This also exists in IA, but with no record on OL: https://archive.org/details/bookofquestions00stoc (now added)
All details are exactly the same, the only difference being the IA identifier.
