Similar Components having a "Convert" option

Similar components should have the ability to be easily Converted / Replaced with another, Ideally this would be in context menu when right clicking an existing component.

Model Renderer and Animated Model Renderer should be able to be quick converted between each other. Collider - Box, Collider - Map, Collider - Sphere, Model Collider, Model Physics and Rigid Body are another group you should be able to switch between each other. Directional light Spot light and Point light should be another group And so on....

image Like this, it has all "similar" components in that drop down, swaps them and tries to fill in "matching" properties it could find.

This could maybe just work based on the category components are in.

Would make development a ton easier, accidently added a model renderer? right click and convert it to animated model render component! rather than removing it, and manually adding the animated model renderer and setting it back up.
