Is there any way to change the Capture Date on a virtual copy?

I've imported scanned photos and edited them, then used the EXIF plug-in to change the capture date and move the photos to their correct folders. However, I did this after I had already created virtual copies from a number of them. The EXIF plug-in didn't change the date of the virtual copies, and I can't seem to change the dates on them manually either. Is there any way to change the capture date on a virtual copy?

In LRC, use the Metadata->Edit Capture Time... command. That works.
