I am, however, wondering how long it'll take before we get cloned armies of genetically-engineered god-like ninja.

it would work the same way Chiyo's revival jutsu worked. the dead shinobi would be summoned to a new clone body of their own. then the summoner would cast a jutsu that causes the revived shinobi's soul to absorb the life force of the clone, which would then bind the soul to the clone's body and completely bring them back to life while the clone itself dies
