Copying and pasting a folder in the Package Explorer or Navigator normally creates a copy (possibly with a numeric increment) as a child of the target folder. Good.

Copying a project (which is a folder) and pasting on a project (which is a folder) creates a new project (sibling). Bad. It should create a sub-folder. If a new project is really required, the working set can be selected as the paste target.

(I want to create a copy of an auto-generated project from a successful JUnit test as a non-project for comparison with the 'same' auto-generated project when the JUnit test fails.)
