How do I duplicate a single post, with all its properties, and save it as a different post?

Question

In a wordpress plugin, how can I duplicate/clone a single post?

I would need to: 1) get a specific post 2) clear its ID property so that it's saved as a new post 3) save it.

In the process, I would like to see all the meta info + taxonomy associations preserved.
