Change the Character Duplication Behavior

Currently, duplicating a character in the journal works well, although the ability to do this from a right click would be appreciated.  The problem comes up when you try to duplicate a character that already has a token associated with it.  The token for the duplicate maintains the link to the original character entry, so changing Health, AC, Panache points, or whatever else you may have linked in the token changes the original entry (and it's token(s)) and does nothing to the duplicate.  I feel like it would be more useful if duplicating a character linked the token fields to the new character rather than leaving them as is.  The current work around for this is to simply un-link the fields after they are set, but this doesn't work well if you need to update the character sheet (say for a group of recurring baddies).

Thanks,
