Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing how uncommitted changes and existing discard or undo actions are handled in the editor, then define the affected file, entity, or asset boundary. Done should allow one selected item’s changes to be discarded while leaving other uncommitted changes intact.
