Enhancement: copy metadata to another layer

[effjot]

Sometimes layers are similar, so it would be useful to copy metadata between layers to have a starting base for editing the information.
I’d be willing to write a processing toolbox algorithm for this.

Hi @effjot,

I know there was no answer yet, but I am also interested in such a functionality. Did you already make progress on the issue?

A bit. I have written a tool for renaming and moving PostGIS layers between schemas which takes care of the corresponding metadata and styles. Copying a layer’s metadata is next on my list.
