Action Flow
1. A new context is created, of the same type as context being copied. Its name is auto-generated by appending "_copy" to the name of the copied context. Its description is also auto-generated by appending the word "Copy" to the Description of the original context.
2. User is prompted to change the name and description of a context to be created.
3. All settings are copied from the original context to the newly created one. Read-only variables and fields are not copied. For more information about the logic behind copy operations, see Context Copy Operations for more info.
