title: How to implement copy paste of a resource in REST?
body: <p>How would you implement copy-paste support in a RESTful way?</p>
  
  <p>Let's say I have book store resource. And books in every store</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://mydomain.com/rest/book-stores/1
  http://mydomain.com/rest/book-stores/1/books/12
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I need the client to be able to invoke copy paste of a book to another store. </p>
  
  <p>Implementing the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PUT http://mydomain.com/rest/books/1/copy-paste
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>seems very RPC like. Do you have any suggestion how can this operation be modeled in a RESTful way?</p>
