It seems somewhat awkward to me (and an extra click) to click on the Configure link for a field on the manage fields page, then scroll to the bottom and click the clone link. Wouldn't it be more straightforward to simply add the link with the other "operations" (configure and remove) on the manage fields page? Is there a technical reason that it wasn't done this way that I'm overlooking?

You guessed right: there is a technical reason for not displaying the link on the Config page in the first place. From what I can see the only way to display that link there during page render time is to override the whole menu path which is far from ideal.

Another option is to add some Javascript code to add it.

It is quite important to add this functionality, be it JS or non-JS so I upgraded the priority. I'll try and give it a go when I get some time.

thanks,
Andrei

I'm interested in this as well. There must be other modules that enhance this list of actions. Can you elaborate on the technical aspects of the issue you found? Are no hooks provided for the actions?
