Bug report: copying attachment moves, doesn't copy
I try to copy an attachment from one entry to another by dragging and holding control (Windows, FF3.6, Z1.2.8). Zotero does show a nice [+] cursor (replicating OS behavior), but actually the attachment is moved, not copied.
Right now the only way to copy an attachment is to do "show file" on the first and then attach the file to the second entry.

I still think it'd be nice to have an option to move items between collections instead of copying them and I think it's reasonable to want to be able to copy child items rather than move them.
It definitely makes sense to provide a move option between collections, but I'm not sure about copying file attachments (which would duplicate them on disk).
As for attachments: I see the problem, but on the other hand most OS have the copy option as mark notes and if it's enabled by a key it's not like people would accidentally double child items.
So if at all possible that should really be combined with correct tooltips i.e. + for copy and whatever else for move.
