Bug Description

This would be beneficial in case of similar transactions occurring, because it would allow to save time.
Adding this feature would also be a workaround to bug #1749457, because duplicating a transaction in the same day, would automatically move it at the bottom of the day, thus allowing to reorder them.
(https://www.moneymanagerex.org has a good implementation of this)

but, why not use the existing way of manage recurring txn ?
- inherit
- template
- scheduling

about txn order, using copy/paste is not a good workaround, so let this wish to be implemented as it should do and be.

There's nothing wrong with those, but a right-click menu with some functions (and maybe some shortcuts as CTRL+C, CTRL+V) would help speed up the overall management. This would also be beneficial in that copy/pasting transaction would automatically paste it with today's date instead of the date of the original transaction as it is in "inherit" case (which is also a useful behavior and should not be replaced).

ctrl+C = copy
