There should be a checkbox and in the App Modeller where you can hold the currently selected attributes.
Example: Once you have decided the best attributes to describe elements for a given application, normally you would then just use those same attributes for a lot of elements that get modelled for that application.
This would speed up Dev time when creating objects. It would also mean that Devs would spend longer finding the best attributes to define elements for a given app as they can just use the same attributes for all.
Another possibility is if you can click on an element and then use a 'Format Painter' to then select all the same attributes on other elements. This could be an even better solution as then you can have a preferred set of attributes for the different spying modes.
