Description

Some minor issues found when testing the new map / tileset reload feature:
- If the map reloads while you currently drag a object onto/on the map the process of addition/move is canceled. That feels a bit weird.
- The reload looses the selection in the tileset window
- Also docks like the properties dock reset their scroll position at reload

But nothing of that is a show-stopper. Only some minor weirdness.

Regards,
Ablu

Research direction

Start by locating the map and tileset reload implementation in the editor and reproduce the three reported cases: dragging an object, selecting a tileset item, and scrolling the properties dock. Done means reload no longer unexpectedly cancels the drag operation or resets the tileset selection and dock scroll position.
