Summary	0000943: 'Copy' track operation causes tracks to Move
Description	If the user attempts to 'copy' a track from one node into another, then the track will actually be 'moved' to the destination node. e.g. user selects a track in Now Playing, copies it to an Artist node because they'd like to see it listed under that artist. --> Artist is changed from 'Original Artist' to 'New Artist' node In this case, the user likely has no idea that the track is no longer accessible via 'Original Artist'. The solution to this problem is either: a) disable 'Paste' when the user is copying to any node other than /My Computer or /Location b) give a warning 'This will change Field: Field Value to New Field Value (for single copy) AND 'This will change FIELD to FIELD VALUE for all x tracks. Do you want to proceed?' Note: I've only set this to 'high' because we haven't had many complaints to-date. This is however, confusing for the average user.
