New Rows: Duplicating a row doesn't change the numbering

I’ve always liked how when you duplicate a section without a custom name, it increments the numbers automatically. For example, if you have Sections 1, 2, 3, 4 and you hit the button to duplicate Section 2, it inserts the new section as #3, and increments the rest of the numbers by 1.

However, it looks like if you duplicate one of the new rows, it simply clones the name over.

For example, in this example I created rows 1 and 2 by clicking the + at the section level, but then I duplicated Row 2 a few times. Then, Row 9 was created by clicking the + button again.

So, it looks like newly created rows behave as expected, but any of the rows that were duplicated keep exactly the same name as the original.

Confirmed. Let me see about what we can do to make that more consistent.

Fixed in beta6. Regretfully it only works on newly created elements because we changed the key behind the scenes to _label instead of title to support renaming any element in the new Layout panel.
