Description

Most of the time you'd set ghost from one pattern to use it in another pattern, so the workflow would be:

  1. Right click pattern A.
  2. Set as ghost.
  3. Double click pattern B.

This is interrupted by the fact that 2. opens the piano roll in your face, so if it overlaps song editor you have to close it to proceed.

This should be a good first issue, probably just one line :)

Research direction

Reproduce the workflow by right-clicking pattern A, choosing Set as ghost, and double-clicking pattern B. Start from the pattern context-menu action and observe the piano roll behavior; done means setting a ghost pattern no longer opens the piano roll, so the next pattern can be opened directly.
