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.

So you put the user in development mode? Sounds dangerous.

Drawing != development.

Maybe I'm only partially understanding this then. My take on this is that the cantSelect property really only comes into play when the edit tool (or whatever it's called these days if it's not development) is active. So you have full edit capability, and that goes beyond just drawing or moving objects around on the screen.
