Once I've created a model of one device type, it would be nice to quickly create different device types with similar features. e.g. Once I've created an EX4200-48T, it would be nice to clone this to an EX4300-48T, then make the limited changes between models (add/delete interfaces).
On the /dcim/device-types/ page, a "clone selected" button could facilitate this.

Clone feature can be useful in DCIM, adding it to the "Action" dropdown which currently has only delete?

This sort of functionality will be covered by introducing JSON import/export for device types in #451.
