EmberSafeClone is a plugin that allows the dom strucuture of an ember view to be safely cloned. It works by removing all traces of ember id's, classes and metamorph script tags in the view node and it's subtree.
This plugin was inspired by the coffeescript solution posted by Gordon Hempton
First load jQuery and the plugin
<script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="jquery.ember-clone.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Now when you need to clone your view
var view = Ember.View.create();
var clone = view.$().cloneEmber();
