I use this feature extensively in an app where there is card that has
objects that users can select to change properties (line width, color,
font, etc) and at the top of the window is a toolbar with font menu,
etc. I don't want the user to be able to select the toolbar controls and
accidentally delete them or alter them, so I use the cantSelect property
on those.

CantSelect is false by default, and since it isn't in the project

mistakes would probably be rare.
I don't think I've ever used the cantSelect property, and I've been
having a hard time trying to come up with a use case for it. Can you
clue me in as to a situation where this might be useful?
