Why bother?
A role has one value: a name. Duplicating it would give you two roles with the same name. What's the value of that?
You can't re-order them, because they're only ordered alphabetically. What's the value in changing that order?
because duplicating roles
because duplicating roles gives you the option to change only the section that you want to give to the new group. clicking ALL those options will drive anyone insane.
As for order of the roles, well it would be nice to have from left to right or right to left of the least enabled (anonymous) to the most featured users, so you dont get confused with permissions
Oh, so you want to duplicate
Oh, so you want to duplicate the role and the permissions that go with it. Why didn't you say so? :-) A quick search of downloads on "duplicate roles" turned up Duplicate Role. Looks like it has only a 5.x-dev release that's not been updated in 4 months.
