Put a token onto the battlefield that's a copy of target creature. Then, for each permanent attached to that creature, put a token of that permanent onto the battlefield and attach it to the creature token. Then, for each counter on that creature, put a counter of the same type on the creature token.

This turns any repeatable life payment into an instagib pretty much. Necropotence, Wall of Blood, Spellskite, etc. Gain life equal to the amount you just spent, have your opponent lose 19ish. Even if you change it to "Target opponent" it still basically gives double strike to all your creatures that hit them, triple strike to lifelinkers, AND you gain extra life. Very similar to a Tainted Sigil + Final Punishment.

I think it can be reworded like this for less ambiguity (not exactly the same, but close enough):
"Target player loses X life, where X is the amount of life he lost this turn, then you gain X life."
So, if you fireball him for 5 damage, he loses 5 more life and you gain 5 life. Does that sound right or am I misreading the card?

Memory problems up the wazoo, plus annoying gamestates.
Let's say you have a grizzly bear in play with a +1/+1 counter on it and a rancor. It should be 5/3.
How big is the final copied bear? 5/3 or 8/4? Plus you have 3 different tokens on the field on top of one another.

It's a Grizzly Bears with a Rancor and a counter on it. It's exactly what you copied. The rules for copy state that a copy is exactly what's printed on the card that it copies, so this would net you a Grizzly Bears token wearing a Rancor token and a counter. Yeah, it might be a little complicated depending on game states--and equipment tokens could get a little out of hand--but I think it's a fantastic idea!

Wouldn't Exact Replica work a bit awkwardly when used on a creature that enters the battlefield with counters.
If you, for example, copy a Triskelion, you put a token onto the battlefield that is copy of a triskelion (1/1 with three +1/+1 counters). Then Exact Replica puts three counters on that creature (because original had the counters), resulting in 1/1 creature with six +1/+1 counters.
Yeah, but is that really a problem? A bit strange, but nothing that would really break anything.

Exact replica on Panoptic Mirror equals prodigious memory issues. Just saying this seems like a great way to copy tons of equipments and a creature for a kinda cheap cost.
Consider that clone as a cmc of 4 one less than your card and doesn't copy anything not printed on the card. I think that Exact Replica could work if it copied the creature and the counters on it, coping anything else just seems like too too much.
