Copying drawings

I have a large, complicated assembly, and I created two drawings for parts within this assembly. I then copied the assembly by right clicking in the browser window and selecting "save copy as". 

 

I've now modified the copied assembly and went to update the drawings, and I discovered that the drawings did not transfer with the new copied assembly, and there doesn't appear to be any method to reattach the drawings to the new assembly.

 

I searched a bit and see if I had used the data panel to copy the assembly it would have given me the option to include the drawings, but since I used a different method to accomplish what should be the same thing, it didn't. Am I missing anything, or is this yet another bug? 

 

And why does it not have the option to copy a drawing from one part to another? This is basic functionality I used on a weekly basis in my old CAD program when dealing with similar parts that may have one or two different features but are otherwise identical
