Copying / importing lists

Hi

There are a couple of great usages for repeated usages of the same list by either 1) making a list in RTM and duplicating it's tasks (like for packing, shopping, etc) or by 2) mailing the list.

However, the duplicate method only allows 25 items to be duplicated and the email method only allows 50 items to be imported.

That severely limits using RTM efficiently for repeated use of long lists of more than 50 items - like packing, which easily contains more than 50 items.

I fail to see why it is not a REALLY simple change to either allow for duplicating more than 25 tasks or to allow for importing more than 50 tasks by mail. If it's all about having SOME limit - then just set it higher at a couple of hundred, for example.

I think RTM development should make better use of a very active community for creating tips & tricks for better use of RTM and prioritize such simple fixes that would increase the value of RTM and the very active community that it has.

I hope to see some reaction to this, as it has been a repeated issue in the community relating to a frustrating limitation in a very good use of RTM.
