More nested block editing oddities

Annoyance 831:

  1. Copy an object from a layer
  2. Isolate a block on a different layer
  3. Edit the block (and perhaps nested instance within that block too)
  4. Paste the previous object

Result: ALL objects from the layer the copied object resides on are now shown as dark grey (which currently interferes with editing of the block), INCLUDING a duplicate of the pasted object, even if you move or otherwise change it!
Expected: Only the pasted object should appear, and nothing else. Ideally, pasted objects should end up on the selected layer (but perhaps there is a setting for this somewhere).

Annoyance 93:

  1. Edit a block instance
  2. Find a nested block in the list and edit it
  3. Close the block edit
  4. Edit the same instance and try to find the same nested block

Result: The nested block has now moved in the list (to the top).
Expected: A hierarchy should always be fixed unless the user changes it. Ideally, it should be in alphanumerical order, unless a custom order has been set.

Annoyance 1356:

  1. Edit a block instance
  2. Rotate a nested block using the gizmo

Result: That nested block simply disappears from the list (until you edit the block again).
Expected: Well… call me crazy, but I don’t think it should disappear…

Annoyance 1747:

  1. Edit a block instance
  2. Observe the list order
  3. Stop editing the instance
  4. Edit the block instance again
  5. Observe the list order

Result: Some blocks move around in the list every other time you open it!
Expected: Again, see annoyance 93. A list should not change on its own accord!
