Node cloner

Describe the feature you'd like to have added
This feature would work in a similar way as the card cloner does but with the whole nodes instead.
What I mean by this:
If we have 2 nodes A and B, and we have configured our node A completely now we need to go and copy card-by-card configs over to node B if it's part of a larger automation or network.
Additional information
I'm attaching a sample image of where this kind of thing would be useful (at least to me :) )
In the image I have automated Hostile Nural Networks using LaserIO and now when I need to add additional fabricators and chambers where each has 3 cards for it, I have to copy over 6 cards one by one which can be a pain sometimes.
p.s. Maybe to help simplify and not having to create additional tools cloning functionality could be moved entirely into the wrench maybe? (Not sure how doable this is, but throwing out an idea maybe, or a cloner wrench instead of 2 different cloner items?)
Im actually working on a PR for 1.20.1 that will add this feature to the card clone item. So hopefully we can have this in the mod soon.

wow that's a nice feature!!
suggestion: any chance we could combine the holder and cloner into one item? seems like it would be perfectly feasible to change the auto-pickup behavior of the holder to only trigger on shift-right-click empty space, and the clone behavior to trigger on block-clicks. the in-inventory behavior of the card cloner doesn't have to change, since the holder has no equivalent function.
would be a very welcome change; maybe rename it to "card tool", "card manipulator" or something.
anyway, thanks for the node cloning, that's gonna be HUGELY helpful!
