Automatically Mark every 'previous' Transformer for plain copy paste into new Workspace

I often find myself reusing subprocesses from my main workspace, either for debugging or for creating similar workflows with small changes in a new Workspace. I'm aware that FME has a ton of useful shortcuts, so I was wondering if there's one that lets you automatically select all the necessary(only!) transformers that belong to a previously used process. The idea would be to quickly copy and paste the used chain into a new workspace without having to manually select every necessary transformer or just copy paste all. Is there a shortcut or built-in feature for this, or is manually selecting the chain still the best approach? I feel like this is most likely highly specific to my own taste but I wanted to ask nevertheless since the main process got way too big :D
Thanks in advance! :)
