Description

First off, great module. I love it. Right up there with CCK, Views and Panels.

I really like the ability to clone Triggered Rules and also clone Rules within Rule Sets. Why limit it to just that?

I have made minor mistakes when creating some rule sets, especially leaving out parameters which I didn't realise I'd need until later. The problem is once I've created the rule set, there's no way to edit the parameters in it, not even to ADD a new parameter.

To get past this problem I was hoping I'd be able to clone the old rule set and add new parameters, but I cant. A feature to clone rule sets just like other rules would help keep this module's usability consistent. And being able to edit the rule sets parameters would make it more flexible.

Just my 2 cents. Keep up the good work.

Seconded!!

Cloning rule sets would be great.

Agreed. But editing parameters is dangerous as actions might depend on them - so we'd have to deal with that. Best we start with a clone() feature.
