Description

I'm always annoyed that after I choose to add something, if no node is selected to attach to, I get an error message and need to select the scenecomposer tab and then a node. Better to just get it in there and have the user shift it to where they want later (unless they have already chosen a node, of course).

Research direction

Start at the "Add in SceneComposer" action and trace how it chooses the node to attach the new item to. Update the behavior so an unselected node defaults to the "Scene" node while an explicitly selected node remains unchanged; verify both cases in the relevant SceneComposer workflow.
