Copy widgets and formatting to other pages

It would be awesome to be able to duplicate widgets and copy them to other pages. For example, for making pages mobile, I have several of the same widgets on several pages. I have to recreate each one each time, even though they are all formatted the same.

@CrystallSalmon The copy and paste (CTRL/CMD - C and CTRL/CMD - V) keyboard shortcuts work for copying and pasting widgets between pages and preserving your configuration.

@AlixVezina I don't think they do. Within the same page they work, but not from page to page or from experience to experience in different windows, which would be really helpful. This has caused me countless minutes of extra work over the years and I really hope this idea gets some attention from the ExB dev staff.

@ZachBodenner It also works between pages within the same app! But you are correct, not between different, separate apps.

@AlixVezina Would you be willing to set up a meeting time so I can demonstrate that it doesn't? Unless there's something about my setup that is non-standard, it simply does not work from page-to-page.

@ZachBodenner, thanks for letting us know. Which browser and browser version are you using? Have you tried Chrome with the latest version?
