Without doing any specific research, I will say that Layer.WMS clone
should work, and I'm surprised it doesn't, but ingenerla that lcone is
one of the less commonly used methods, and I'm not entirely surprised
that it's not working for you.

Patches, are of course, welcome: there are no known outstanding issues
with loning, but we don't use it often, so I wouldn't be surprised to
hear bugs.
