Smarter Duplicate | Auto Update Reference

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Imagine you have 5 requests in a folder for an entity1: C, R, L, U, D.
R/U/D references response body ($.data.id) of C.

Now you want to have another entity2. So you duplicate the folder. Rename the folder to corresponding new entity2.
But now the _new_ R/U/D requests of entity2 are still referencing entity1's R. This is very time consuming and annoying to edit/update as there can be many variables per request.

Describe the solution you'd like
When duplicating _multiple_ requests, if there are variables in those requests that reference the requests being duplicated, update those references to newly duplicated requests.

Describe alternatives you've considered
> Child Requests

A new type of requests where R/U/D will be descendant of C (in example) and refer to that request in _relative_ terms. This is a much more involved solution and is very powerful and open up many more creative ways.
