Well, yeah, but it's still a bug.

Re-declaring the mesh (which is all that your procedure would use)
defeats one of the primary reasons for using the mesh:  Memory savings.
I have a model made of 21 mesh objects, for a total of 30,336 triangles.
If I had re-declared each mesh, each of these models uses 4.5 megs of
memory.  If I copy the meshes, each model uses about 32K or so.
