Automatic retain option in clone command

Automatic retain option in clone command

(OP)
is it possible?

Let see the following sample:
The designer has this assembly structure:
Assy
Component1
Component2 (this component has a WAVE link from the component2)
Bolt M10x30
Nut M10

The designer would like to generate a different design phase appending a „_v2" string to the all of the files' name expect the two std parts (bolt and nut)
He would like to generate the following structure:
Assy_v2
Component1_v2
Component2_v2
Bolt M10x30
Nut M10

He generates the appending structure with the Create Clone Assembly menu command.
But he wouldn't like to set manually the retain setting to the two std parts.
He searches an 'Clone_Retain=YES' attribute or something else to reduce the time of the clone settings.

I hope I was more exactly and I can describe better the question.
