System Information
Operating system: win10
Graphics card: 1050ti

Blender Version
Broken: 3.4.1

Short description of error
If you are duplicating a strip with driver, then driver is automatically transferred from source to a copy. This means original strip loses driver.
Actually, I was hoping to get a copy of a driver too (like with scene objects), but at least it shouldn't go away from the source.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
In attached file duplicate Color strip -> driver is reassigned to Color.001

There may be duplicate report for this, but AFAIK, this is currently expected behavior, drivers are not handled at all in sequencer when copying strips. Also duplication is implemented in rather hacky way. Copy/pasting strips may prevent this behavior.

I think this could be relatively simple to resolve for copy/pasting strips, rewriting duplication may be bit more tricky, but it would benefit from using copy pasting API.
