In qualitative modeling I typically define certain styles in a model, i.e. color, font, background-color, for arrows also dashed, dotted and for comments attached to vars even arrows without arrow-head. (When working with clients in GMB, comments in the formula editor have not proven useful, unlike in simulation modeling, where they are very useful).
For variables and comments, the commonly-used work-around is to not create a new variable but copy-paste a variable that already has the desiried style and then edit its variable name. However, that does not work for arrows, because they are not stand-alone and only their head can be reattached to soemthing else, but not the tail.
Hence it would be very useful to have the possibility to copy-paste a style of an arrow. Ideally not just a new button but also through a keyboard shortcut. And of course it wouldn't hurt if that could be use on vars and comments.
