In RTC 4.0.6 is it possible to restrict or disable the "Create Work Item Copy action" the Web client ?

What you will need to explore are the Permissions such as create a workitem or save a workitem. There is no way to disable this action specifically. See http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v4r0m6/topic/com.ibm.jazz.platform.doc/topics/c_permissions.html

I have the same issue, I want to allow people to create them and save them. For me, I want even lower ... to be able to either:
1) (preferable) define for a work item type what attributes (custom and built-in) can NOT be copied into a new work item.
2) restrict the Copy Work Item Copy action" on specific work item types
Would it be possible to:
1) write an Operation Advisor that is invoked on the workItemSave which could then determine a) it is a new work item (since copy I assume is a create with values from the old work item) and b) that we can tell from the ISaveParameter.getNewState() data that this work item creation is based on a COPY???
2) write an Operation Advisor specifically to be invoked to validate a "Create Work Item Copy" action? I haven't found a plugin action that I can use for this.

Is there any progress in the customizing attributes of "Create work item copy"? I'm facing similar problem with my coworkers who wrote already about their issues.
