This is more or less what the SOIL plugin does: you can copy various 
sketch objects to a clipboard and copy them back into your document.
Optionally, these collections can be saved to disk.
This plugon works apart from the clipboard and needs ome polish, but 
overall if you search for such a feature it's already there.
