(feature request) duplicate before transforming

[tebi]

(I hope you understand my english)

Many times I have an object that I want to transform trough the transform dialog several times. Actually I need to do a copy manually before transform, but it's tedious to do for a lot of transformations steps.

I know that there is a clone dialog for it but the problem is that:
    The clone dialog is not an step-by-step option.
    The clone dialog is hard to set (lost of time).
    The clone dialog take a lot of place to kept it docked.

The solution is simple to implement (I think) and is a function that the best design sofware have (I use inkscape for design production), to putt an "duplicate & transform" extra buttom or adding a modifier to the actual Apply button (like SHIFT+Apply = duplicate and transform).

thanks for reading!

I think the easiest way is to press ctrl+d just before clicking apply ?

That work for a few steps but not is an easy way if you had to do that one hundred times. For something professional softwares have that option.
