copy / duplicate existing object types
the need for this seems very obvious and basic for any scenario that makes more extensive use of types
... and I just realized this very isn't up here yet (though already discussed on Discord :-) )
– I think even more elegant would be a longer term solution, which allows to build – hierarchical – groups of types, which share some basic set of properties.
But in the absence of any such solution – which would also allow the option of nesting and hierachical grouping and this some more advanced sorting of types in the sidebar – a simple 'duplicate type' would be a needed short term solution for a very fundamental need / lack within Capacities (... or any way to build 'templates' that include defined sets of properties, for that matter)

This feature gets my vote! I am surprised this hasn't been implemented after it has been requested three years ago. I just jumped into Capacities, and I'm finding it wonderful but as I continue using it and finding similar Object Type that aren't true "Collections" of the existing Object Type, I would love to duplicate an Object Type.
This feature is a must have especially when trying to use capacities in mobile and tablet apps. It's too annoying to retype and harder to select all and copy and paste when simple duplicate helps before the object gets modified further
