I've always been confused by this also. What purpose does the Copy command serve in the NameMapping tool as it is currently designed?
There are times when you know all the identification parameters you need to map a given object, but it just isn't available right now; or you need to map several similar objects that only differ in an identification string. It would be much easier and faster to Copy/Paste/Edit an existing object than it would be to map each object individually.
Consider this a feature request to add this functionality to NameMapping, its an operation that is long overdue.
