> I'm wondering:
> 
> 1. When did you start using geda/pcb?
~2012

> 2. Have you ever used the COPY_MODE intentionally? COPY_MODE is: drag&drop an _unselected_ object (element, line, whatever) while ctrl is pressed. It's like move, but it makes a copy.
No

> 3. If not, did you know about this feature?
Only recently

> 4. If not, now that you know about it, do you think you are going to use it over/beside the normal copy+paste buffer operations?
Likely not, but perhaps.

> 5. Have you ever used the COPY_MODE by accident? If so, did you figure it was the COPY_MODE or just did an undo and didn't try to figure?
Not on linux.  On mac a simple drag/move ends up in COPY mode for some reason (bug).
