REGRESSION: Yes. Does not occur in 4.16.3
Using Copy/Paste to duplicate a component will result in a broken duplicate component. This doesn't occur if the user uses Ctrl+W to duplicate.
On compile, the user will either crash (see callstack), or generate a compile error:
Internal Compiler Error: Tried to create a property DefaultSceneRoot_GEN_VARIABLE in scope NewBlueprint_C, but another object (SceneComponent DefaultSceneRoot_GEN_VARIABLE) already already exists there.
RESULT
Duplicate component has odd name, and either the blueprint will error on compile, or crash.
