The rules clone action clones the node but doesn't clone the paragraphs in it, The cloned module includes the same paragraphs as the original.

I see that Field Collection also had this problem and made a separate module to make cloning of field collections possible.
Please consider the same approach for Paragraphs. Very much needed.
See the field collection node clone module: https://drupal.org/project/field_collection_node_clone

I think any module that uses a field to reference to another entity has this problem.
I still think this problem should be fixed in entity/field API, it's kind of the same problem as we have with translation (translation clones the node, but not the embedded entities).

Currently I suggest using the module in the comment above until we have a viable solution.
