With the new responsive editor being so great, i feel like many users now do not use the dragging functionality of the editor. The element tree and the previous/next/make first/make last functionalities are all we really need.
There are too many times when i want to click on an element but i accidentally drag it slightly, prompting the editor to have a stroke while it recalculates all the dimensions and positions of the element. On SPAs and complex pages this can take quite a lot of time, and this is repeated when pressing the undo button.
If there were a setting that defaults all new elements to “locked” it would avoid all this unnecessary load on the bubble editor.
