Hello. This is not a big deal, but I'm wondering why editing a KML name doesn't work the same way as editing a folder name.

Element_name_selection.gif

When changing a folder name, the user can select and erase (or replace) part of the name. Most text editing boxes work this way. But when changing a KML name (Point, Line, Polygon, Ground overlay, Screen overlay), the user can only select and erase the whole name.

It would be a small upgrade – but nevertheless, an upgrade! – to be able to select and erase (or replace) part of a KML name.

Thank you!
