I just found myself desiring a dynamic XML data source identical to an existing one, except the URL from which it fetches the data is different. To achieve this, I copied the existing data source file and edited it directly, making sure to change all the references to the old data source name to the name of my new data source. This works fine, but it’s a little cumbersome.

It would be cool if data sources had “Clone” button that takes you to the form for creating a new data source, but with the type and other options populated identically to the original data source. Then I could just give the new data source a name, change any options that differ, and be on my way.
