hello satchmo friends, hello Thomas, hello Chris!

Solution product adding speed-up:
-----------------------------
There is already a django way for solving this issue.
Its called "_saveasnew" in "submit_line.html"
Did you forgot about it, or is there a reason why we shouldn't use it?
I already tested it on development server and it seems to work just
fine. What do you guys think about it?
Now a button in admin/products section "Save as new" got created and it
seems to work fine. 
If this is the solution, than it could be added really fast.
Please give me your comments.

greetings
Ionic
