I've recently started clear-cutting my local forest to fuel steel and glass production. In doing so, I have to manage how many bars of pig iron and steel I produce. The problem is, I work with fairly high numbers of them, which makes me have to use the work orders screen to make sure that there isn't too much of one made. Now, I would like to be able to copy orders so that I don't have to keep going into the 'new order' screen over and over again.
I searched around, but didn't see any suggestions about this.

I just set a magma smelter on repeat and make iron ore and flux stockpiles nearby. I have a bar stockpile close too, and a few excess bars of iron and pig iron just in case.

Other than that, I'd like the ability to copy and paste an order in manager screen too. It is somewhat annoying to repeatedly get through all the menus to make 150 of something without setting a workshop on repeat.

Or just enable numbers higher to 30 to be ordered. Although what you propose is ok too
