Eureka
Ok I struggled a bit and now I get it (I think!). Never saw the need since I use ghosted (pooled) patterns.
But I do think there would need to be a distinction between editing a single item vs the entire track. If you've accidentally opened all the data for a track and are zoomed into one item, you could mess everything up.
Since we can open all the midi items for a track in the editor at once already, are we not merely missing the ability to edit all the visible items as well? Wouldn't a toggle (with distinct visual cues) to switch between edits affecting the selected item vs the whole track solve any problems?
