Derive Clone is not broken. It is basic. I’d say this is a good area for a dependency but not the core Rust functionality. Keep derive simple and stupid, so people can learn they can derive stuff themselves. It also avoids any surprises.

I mean, how this is not core Rust functionality if you need clone for many things unless you want to fight the borrow checker for yet another day?
