Copying and pasting Nodes in the tree-based rule editor works very unintuitively:
When Nodes with Attributes are collapsed, selecting multiple Nodes, copying and pasting them is no problem at all, as expected.
However, when Nodes with Attributes are expanded and Attributes are selected as well as Nodes (which is the case when selecting multiple Nodes as a group and not individually), pasting will not work, which is quite unexpected.

Possible solution: When pasting, paste only objects currently allowed in the hierarchy. E.g. when pasting into a RHS, paste only Nodes, Edges and Nested Conditions, discarding Attributes and other unallowed copied elements.

See attached screenshot for a visual description of the problem.
