No specific comment, no. I don't hold `copy-tree` in my heart (it
rarely copies exactly what you need, similar problem as for
`flatten-tree`), so as general rule I'd recommend against its use, but
it's occasionally handy as a quick&dirty "deep copy" function, and
extending it to records seem like an obvious fix (it used to do that
back when `cl-defstruct` used vectors).
