The problem with all of the duplicate tab methods for IE is that none of them copy what’s currently in a form. This website, for example, has a search box. Type “test” in the box (don’t click Search, though) and duplicate the tab. You don’t get the word “test” in the search box when the IE tab is duplicated.
