I think one should not blame ImageJ developers for this, AFAIK the usual
approach is to only
do what is "save", it is generally nontrivial to duplicate an arbitrary
composed object, there is
no "correct" way to do this (Shallow copy vs. Deep copy etc.), without
knowing how the copy
will be used later, see the discussions about cloning in Java.
