There are different transformers with the same functionality. When it is about to change such a transformer to a more generic one, It would be really handy to be able do it automatically than create the more generic transformer and copy over the parameters. Eg:

AttributeCreator, AttributeRemover or AttributeCopier to AttributeManager,

Tester (or even AttributeFilter) to TestFilter

This would be a very useful utility. I have many AttributeCreator transformers with complex Parameter Condition Definitions. It is a very tedious and error-prone task to migrate these from an AttributeCreator to the much more useful and flexible AttributeManager.
