Hi Tom - Unfortunately not, because this would break e.g. extrusion. One
thing we were thinking about was to add an option to the Duplicata
command to actually copy the mesh (would be very useful for periodic
grids). The details are a bit tricky though, so I don't know when we'll
have time to implement it.
