This makes sense.

Did you mean `org-clone-item'?

I tried to play around a bit with various flavours of X-<RET> commands
and I am not sure if I like C-M-RET:
1. For org-insert-heading, we have multiple variants that allow
inserting heading at point, after current subtree, and the same
variants for TODO heading. We don't have enough key combinations left
to allow all the equivalents for subheadings.
2. With `org-cycle-level-after-item/entry-creation' set to t (default),
it is actually very easy to create a subheading/subitem using the
available C/M-[S]-<RET> commands. Just do M-<RET> <TAB>. And the same
will work for inserting todo headings.
