that begins with E and
With the palette metaphor, ESC in the schematic window would stop
placing (return to "arrow mode") but leave the palette up. ESC in the

This makes sense, but the 'apply' button seems redundant. As soon as you
select a component from the list, it should be available for placement, with no
