The identifiers of copied elements are incremented with respect to the original elements.
The original elements and copied elements can be edited independently.
A few elements cannot be copied/pasted as such. They need their parent element to be copied as well. This is the case with boundaries, and extracts, for example.
In this case, you may also consider using PowerCopies.
