I'm having an issue where users are copying pages with Draw diagrams and then deleting the originals to keep revisions accurate to reflect actual revisions and not reflecting the actual diagram build process. After they copy the page, they return to the original page and delete it as it's no longer required. When attempting to edit the diagram on the copied page, a 500 is thrown in the console as it can't be found.

I tested by creating a new page, then creating a diagram on that page. After saving and copying the page, the diagram is editable on the new page until the original page is deleted. This causes the same error and results in the user having to recreate their entire diagram again.

This makes sense as to why this is happening but is not practical if pages are copied and original pages are deleted.

Can the entire Draw file not be duplicated as well at the time of page copy?
