* The "change parent" button is experimental and may or may not work. You cannot reparent to anything other than a composite and it gives no indication of this - and the object may jump or reorient badly

* There is as yet no confirm dialog for delete, but the delete button is moved to a safer location

* Implement enhanced buttons for doing stuff on property dialog. Property dialog now shows both the path and the parent path and has obvious buttons for modifying the parent, deleting the object, and changing the object you are editing. These functions have been moved off the ribbon into the main dialog area and enhanced with labels to make it obvious what is going on. Only the KB button remains on the ribbon

* Teleport now has send location and send rotation properties. These set how the viewer will be positioned and their direction of view at the destination of the teleport action. If these are not set (checkbox is not checked) the user will teleport to the default location and orientation for the destination zone (the spawn point)

known issues (should be filed as bugs):
 
a) if you quickly click and release on something like a light rep,
 
the meta menu will show up, but this requires some work to get it
 
working properly. Can be ignored for now
 
b) The rotate mode on light reps is a little weird - the adjustment
 
rings will change scale in an unstable way. This is something to
 
do with lights not really having a scale. Some investigation is needed
 
here. It is useable however. (edited)
