You cannot change field values with the CopyMasterDetail  API.    Its also not obvious to get at the rid for the newly created record. 

What I do is to land the user on a report of recently created Parent records by the current user.  ie the records you just created.  I do that with an rdr after the copymasterdetail.

I then detect that the name field for the record now begins with "copy of", and show a button and a big red message asking the user to put the button.  The button then makes any field changes required.
