"weld Property Browser"

"Also replaced the other strange Edit-alike TextView with a real Edit entry and
a dropdown which can be used to support entry of multi-line labels"

Seems like the change was intended. Not sure what is possible here, perhaps if
clicking on the edit field would bring up the text editor dropdown, that'd be
nice (as I can see, even in the previous version, the edit field itself was
non-functional, edits happened in the editor dropdown).

What's different in the dropdown is that pressing Enter no longer closes it. No
idea what other way would be to switch between the editor and the button, Tab
doesn't work (it adds a Tab to the editor, it probably shouldn't).

It's also annoying that when trying to select text in the dropdown, if you move
outside the dropdown area, it closes (users will likely select from right to
left, because it's easier to start from the large empty area, but if they're
just a bit off with the movement, the popup closes).
