I've been wanting to implement a fork-like feature for places where a
new place is created as a clone of its parent.
A deep namespace-copy could be useful in that scenario.

Could namespaces be dicts and we could write dict-copy?

is there a way to duplicate or copy a namespace? It looks like I can use

I think you're right that there's currently no way to duplicate a
namespace. Maybe we could add additional reflective operations, but
it's easy to add too much in this space.
Can you say more about how duplicating a namespace would be useful?
