I don't believe people are taking this seriously.  Pressing a key while you
select a menu item?  If you type '3' and select "Duplicate", does it make
three copies of the selection?  If you type '8' and select "Save", does it
save eight copies of the document?  Think for a minute.

If you want multiple pasting, how about a "Paste Multiple" menu item?
