Clone item via URL

Currently it's only possible to clone an item from the item view itself. I'd like to use the clone feature with "template items" where an item is prefilled with some values.

But to use the clone feature, we have to explicitly:

• visit the item
• click actions
• click clone

I took a quick look at the source code and the clone "link" isn't really a link. If it was a link (you could still use javascript to catch the action) it would be possible to set up instructions (say in a workspace tile) that linked to the clone action of a specific template. If the user clicked the link, he/she would clone the item and be sent to the "create new item" view with prefilled values.

  Agreed: important to have default values, where needed.
