Hey @smejak! Thanks for the PR, it is definitely a great feature. From a cursory glance, the code looks good, the team and I will review it properly in the next few days.

Hey @AbhinavTuli! Thanks a lot! I am still working on the final implementation of copy and delete functions & their corresponding unit tests. I will push the updates to this PR once it's ready.

Hi @tatevikh. I signed the CLA but then I accidentally pushed a commit with incorrect credentials. I tried to git rebase that commit but it seems it hasn't been updated here.

Closing due to many conflicts. Will add the new PR link as soon as we open it.
