Technically, this is quite easy. The tricky question is where to put a relatively rare operation in the UI.
Can this be structured as a QL function instead? Conceptually, this is a variation of _createHere. If we did it that way, we might be able to enable someone to implement this function, without building it in. Until we have reason to believe that it's common, that might be the best way to go.
