    Description

      A copyField directive in the schema with source="*" will duplicate all content that was already in dest. This doesn't seem like a show stopping problem, but it was a surprise to me, and I can't think of a reason you'd want that to happen. Worst case scenario is that it makes your index 2x larger for no reason.

      The first patch adds a test into CopyFieldTest that shows the behavior.
