I followed John's advice and just .copy() the InventoryEntry now before re-inserting it, which seems correct.
(I tried to add a test to check if it was really cloned, but could not figure out how to compare them in the end. It may be a little overkill in any case.)

I pushed my changes to this branch now, but I can't figure out how to re-submit for review and to update the diff.
