There are other extensions that clone the ticket, or clone
transactions on a ticket.  SpawnLinkedTicketInQueue wasn't designed to
copy content, it was designed to solve a problem we have - trivially
make a related ticket in another Queue to help the person who has to
set up linked tickets at the start of a project.

Something like RT::Extension::CloneTicket::WithData or one of the
similar modules available may do what you want.
