Bulia...this is an awesome feature. I wish the keyboard shortcut was easier to do with one hand.
Adobe Illustrator doesn't seem to have anything directly analagous to a Clone tool. The way it works in Adobe Illustrator seems to be that you make a symbol of something first and then you use the Symbol tools, namely the Symbol Sprayer which has the keybinding Shift+S. I dont know how you plan to implement things in the future but you may want to reconsider the current design if it will inevitably need to be changed later.
Do other vector graphics tools behave similarly or do they have Clone tools?
Does Scribus have support for the clone command? Scribus has a nifty capability to create a border pattern from a given svg item, but it appears to create copies of the image, which can take a lot more file space than if it were done via <use>. Is there a way to do that in Scribus?
