Description
Sometimes it is needed to separate relations that way every relation has individual clone of common ways and nodes.
Example to separate multipolygon areas that use same way or divide bus-stop (with multiple route) to two place.
Currently there is no easy command for that so following patch add new unglue relation action, which duplicate nodes, ways and relations that are used by multiple relations.

Added it to the new UtilPlugin2. (In [o24236])
I fear that "unglue relation" will be a little hard to understand for most users. At least it needs a dialog box with explanations when the selection is invalid. (An object with less then 2 parent relations is selected.)
Most of the actions in the tools menu are relatively straight forward, you can more or less guess what it does and after a little experimenting it should be clear how it works. The tool you provide is quite specialized and advanced. I have the feeling it is on a "higher level" than the other basic tools.
Some time ago we had a plugin with new experimental tools. After some time they found their way into JOSM core, so the plugin does not exist any more. Maybe we can revive it?
On the other hand we could also consider splitting the current tools into 2 groups. After all, the list is quite long already. Then your new feature might fit in better...
