When entering collection objects from newly collected material, it would be convenient if the collection object could be cloned multiple times.
For example, if I want to insert 32 identical objects, it would be nice to have a “clone it X times” option where I could set X to 32 to generate 32 records.
It would probably be inappropriate to have this option for all collections, but is it possible to make it optional on the collection object form, or even put it in a different subform?
