Brainstormed this with Addshore on IRC just now:
A module that would take a claim's GUID and another items id, and would copy the entire claim, including references and qualifiers and would add it to the other item.
This would be extremely useful for bots which are adding the same claim to thousands of items.
Extra functionality: A &remove parameter or something that would remove the claim from the item it is currently.

@Esc3300 Just add them in the description field on that ticket and I'll go over them when we're doing the planning :)
Would be good if this finally could be done. Current solution is to just leave statements on the wrong item.
