Item8261: Fork a topic in the flow

implement a workflow that would involve "splitting" the topic under control. It's not really a split, but more of a exact copy that can go through the workflow differently. Consider the following senario:

- topic created "RMA0000026" (Return Material Authorization) to track 10 returned parts. - Later in the workflow, it is necessary that 5 parts need to be split out as they require a completely different disposition.

In my mind, the necessary tag (or maybe separate plugin) would be %COPYWORKFLOWTOPIC{"web.topic" target="newtopicname"}% which could produce a button which would create the topic copy and then redirect to it.

* I would like the workflow history of both the original topic and the new topic to have a entry about the split.*
