Is this eventually a duplicate of #1350808: Clone a field to be reused in the same content type → ? (I'll take a deeper look soon)
Renaming a fields machine name would also be a super helpful functionality, but I guess it's still far too complicated due to possible relations. So I created a separate issue / follow-up for that:
Anyway one easier step would be to allow at least copying a field to the host entity with a new machine name.
I guess the functionality is basically already there for the copy, but the UI is missing to "clone" a field and set a new machine name. Label and other settings could be changed afterwards, using the regular Drupal Field administration UI (by redirecting to the field edit after creating the field clone with the new machine name).
I had several cases where that already would have helped me a lot. So it would be great to discuss, how that could be done best.
