Hi,

is there a simple possibility for creating a copy of a context or runtime ?
The idea is to create a copy of the whole ecmascript environment which may be changed by some scripts. After execution of these scripts, it should be possible to "rollback" all changes in the context for working with the original context. A rollback function would be too complex, so I want to create a copy of the whole context that I may use for retrieving the old state.
Would it be a good idea to implement a function for deep copying the context struct ?
Has anyone done something like that yet ?

thanks in advance,
		Matthias Thiel
