Is there a setting I need to change, or do I just have to be super careful from now on and always preserve special "copy layers" of every text item, then hide them and be extremely cautious about not styling them, lest I happen to group text with other elements and lose all editability? Seems a real glitch to me!
(BTW, I'm not in the habit of ending every sentence with exclamation points, but this is ridiculous)
