Hi Kohei,

Done.

Done.

Done.

An empty imput box is logical to me, because the Rename dialog shows
also an empty in input box.
But if you want, I can try to impement it.
It is not in this patch, because it more difficult than it sounds.
The default name depends on the document where the copy is going to,
if it is the same document or another document.

Skipped.
If you do undo (Ctrl-Z) twice, then the renaming will also be undone.

Done.
