SI+editor use?
I've recently discovered that SI can only be used on dedicated servers. Does that mean I can't use the mission editor? If so what do you guys use to replace editor functions such as moving/rotating a group of objects and copy and pasting?

Rotating, use the construction tool in rotation mode (press B or your mine key to change modes).
Copy paste is a slightly different story. If you want you can save a section, and move you stuff, then reload the stuff you want to paste. But honestly there really isnt a good way to do this.
Copying and pasting also is not very easy to do without editor. You could do it by loading something, moving it, then loading another, etc.
I also use the editor when I build, so I made a script that lets me hide all of the pieces that aren't near me. That way, as long as theres <1000 pieces within X meters of me, I can still use the editor. Then, when I'me done, I turn my script off and look at the finished building with SI enabled.
You may also want to try the editor gun in ECM. It can't manipulate groups of pieces, but it is very useful for scaling and moving individual pieces.
Mind hooking me up with that?
Just put this in the existing chat command .cs file, and use /hidepieces <dist> or /revealpieces
