Description:
Sorry; I wanted to suggest a feature, but that link took me to bugs.

I can't clone formatting between documents - only within. That's really annoying! It must be a pretty straightforward feature to add, so please do.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open two documents
2. Try to clone formatting from one to the other.

Actual Results:
Clone formatting cursor has vanished upon switch to other document.

Expected Results:
Clone formatting cursor remains and can be used.


Reproducible: Always
