Add a menu option to import from other file formats from legacy layout planning tools

As a mouse and keyboard user, I want to double click the name of a layer to bring up the ability to edit the name, because that is intuitive to me.

As a user, I want the text box to automatically have focus when I select to edit the name of a Layer, so that I can immediately start typing instead of needing an additional click/tap.

When you click a component/part, sometimes the code thinks you are starting to drag it instead of select it. Threshold for dragging should scale with zoom level, also it should take more mouse movement to start a drag when the part/component is connected to another one than if it is unattached.

As a user I want to be able to search for text/labels in a large layout, so that I can quickly find what I am looking for without scrolling all over the place. Ctrl+F should bring up a search. When in read-only mode, an icon should exist on the screen for searching as well. Maybe this should also be shown in exit mode.. just need to figure out the screen real estate.

After cloud accounts and storage, since those are pre-requisites for this. Current plan: When a layout is published, it will be assigned a random 8 character identifier Example: https://app.bricklayouts.com/I3ctFcSI When accessed through the published URL, the layout will be in read-only mode unless you are logged in as the owner of the layout. Public read-only viewers will not see live editing Future enhancements (not part of the work to complete this request) A gallery for browsing public layouts
