Copying without Viewing the Repository

1 Requirements

This feature is closely related to Adopting Content for Groups. That said feature solved the issue discussed below for the workflow that is triggered from within the target object. 

Current Status in ILIAS 5.1 
If users copy an object, the workflow may be started

• from ▼-menu outside the very object that is to be copied. 
• by clicking "Add New Object" and selecting "Option 3: Copy"

Currently these workflows require users to pick the target location from the tree of the Repository and then ILIAS copies there-to. 

Issue and Requirement 
Many installations dor not display the Repository to their users. Users work from their Personal Desktop only. Users do not have view-permission but do have read permission for the Repository. 
If users do not see the Repository they should be offered a tab with "My Courses and Groups" instead. The solution found for Adopting Content for Groups should be applied here as well. 
The issue is not restricted to copying but also applies to moving and linking (verknüpfen).
