Since r39097 (IDEIntf: OI: component treeview: show all owned objects in properties)
it became much harder to understand and use treeview. Please, if you are sure it is an improvement for somebody, at least make it configurable.

Please! Object inspector is now totally broken, with multiple crashes, fields disappearing, treeview displaying multiple "ghost" items... Currently as a workagound I edit lfm files by hand instead of using form designer,
but is slows my work down substantially.

Please! Object inspector is now totally broken, with multiple crashes, fields disappearing, treeview displaying multiple "ghost" items... Currently as a workagound I edit lfm files by hand instead of using form designer, but is slows my work down substantially.

Same here with 39147. I have a pqconnection on a form. When I click on the component on the form the Name property is not shown. When selecting the same componenent in the OI tree, Name appears but when changing the name, an access violation is raised when pressing enter. Zconnection from zeoslib has 6 properties that show this behavior.

2nd problem. Clicking on pqconnection on the form highlights in the OI tree a pqconnection "owned" by the form and a pqconnection "referenced" by SQLQuery1. Clicking on one of the highlighted pqconnections in the tree causes a "List index (1) out of bounds." exception. Other than the bug, conceptually I don't understand this mixture of "owned by" and "referenced by" relationship in the tree view. Confusion galore! On top of that the view is not coherent in that a reference to a pqconnection on another form or datamodule is not shown in the tree. Only references to components on the current form are shown.

Windows XP.

If you want I can raise a bug but mantis is not the place to discuss conceptual decisions.

Sigh. Ok, will try -- the problem is that Mantis takes few minutes upon every page load,
which makes submitting bug reports quite frustrating. I am surprised that quite visual minor problems with the boolean checkboxes get so much attention, while this massive breakage is silently ignored.
