Media Set not displayed for duplication jobs - why?

[Grand]

It's starting to become a major annoyance that the Job Setup screen does not show the Media Set name for jobs of type "Duplicate".  Is there ANY way (supported or not) for me to view this information on the Job Setup page?  If not, I'll start updating the Media Set field/table in the DB and hope it's not being filtered for the duplicate jobs.

Is there a reason for this or is it simply a bug that was never addressed (or fixed in versions more current than 12.x)?

Edit: Same question for the Job Method and Overwrite fields.

I am using BE 2010 R2 and this is what I get for duplicate job.

By job method, if you mean Full, Incremental, etc., it is not relevant for a duplicate job.

Couldn't see the media set details and the other details pointed by you in BE 2010 R2 also.

Point taken.  I don't know why the Media set and Overwrite is blank, but the Job Method is not relevant to a duplicate job so it is blank.

I think you can post this in Ideas section. (From top right side of the page Create Content--> Idea)

Hope will be implemented in later versions.
