Find Files Templates: Copy existing template name

In Find Files on Load/Save tab, in "Save"->"Save parameters" dialog the field of name is empty, so user have type new name manually even to use the same or similar name to one of existing template names.
I suggest to add a possibility to copy the name of currently focused template name using Ctrl+C hotkey, so user can easily use it for new template name.

IMO it would be better to replace the edit field with a combobox containing the list of existing searches, so the user can choose any of them, or type a new one. And, I agree, that the name could be taken from the currently focused search. Just like in the F7 dialog to create a directory which prefills the currently focused directory.

Or add a "Duplicate rule" button perhaps?

By rule did you mean template name? Or this was a reply to
http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=43135 ? Because the goal of suggestion from current topic is to use a name of existing tamplate to create a name of new template, and "Duplicate" function in a way you described it will rather copy the entire template than just its name.

I don't think that suggesting focused item name is useful. I would prefer copying focused template name by Ctrl+C.
