Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to implement Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V to copy and paste entities in the scene editor.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Using Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V in the entity treeview is inconvenient for quick placement.

Additional context
It would behave the same as Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V in the treeview.

I would like to make a PR for this.

Research direction

Start by locating the scene editor and the entity treeview implementation that already handles copy and paste, then compare how their input events and selection are managed. Done means Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V work from the scene view and behave like the existing treeview commands.
