new Characters tool needs a "copy unlinked function" just like old Character Vault has

Score + 8
The New Characters Tool needs this feature added. Simply, I want to be able to copy characters between games like we can in the old Charter Vault WITHOUT it having to permanently muck up the new "My Characters" screen with a new instance. The Transmogrifier is NOT an option for this because it will not make a copy of the character but will overwrite it if it already exists. I don't think this functionality is available anywhere else and it is very useful, please don't kill it with the old Character Vault. Give us a way to do this in the new My Characters tool. The way it should work is that after you copy the character to a new game, you can remove that instance from the new "My Character" screen WITHOUT it being deleted from the game. OR maybe we just need a "delete from My Character tool, but leave games untouched" feature. I have a private game to hold all my characters and favorite NPCs. I use the old Character Vault to copy NPCs into other games, then I can remove them from the old Character Vault and the games are untouched. Also I make backups of favorite real characters for EACH level they progress. This way if I want to use a lower level copy of a favorite character for a one-shot or as an NPC in some other campaign, then i can easily copy them into a new game and then remove them from the old Character Vault screen so that it does not become cluttered with all the instances of every character or NPC that I ever wanted to copy and move around.
