Well, if we're already using hacks like modifying G.qual, you could just
as well modify U and set all relevant flags in the userprefs, and reset
them again after adding the duplicate.

I don't really care about the python API, but as you're already doing this,
maybe it should be possible to pass the same flags as used in the userprefs
as options to the python duplicate function, ala

duplicate(DO_DATA, DO_IPO, DO_TEXTURE, DO_MATERIAL),

where all these are booleans. That would be ideal and most flexible -imho-.
