Use Ctrl+Shift+V or similar shortcut to paste an item in the location of the original (paste in place). This is a standard function in most major design software and it is a very useful shortcut. In Pro it would be useful for graphic features (both map graphics and layout graphics). By default, Ctrl+V pastes the item at an offset from the original. If you want it to duplicate something in the same location, you have to paste it and then eyeball your drag, or tinker with positioning settings in the element pane. You can use guides if you're using layout graphics, but still -- much too cumbersome.
