Good of you to raise this. I for one would also like to get a blank field when hitting the plus sign and an option of simply deleting a field - though I do know that for fields which are not mandatory - it is enough to leave it blank and it will 'disappear' on save which is how I've been working this thus far (but ideally I think one shouldn't have mandatory fields duplicatable in their framework - but that's just me again :) ) .
