The first couple are sort of borderline bugs, actually, but. Stop me if you've heard these before.

* If you cut a door (control-X) and paste it elsewhere, its orb associations disappear.
* Copying an orb reproduces the old orb's associations, but copying a door does not reproduce the old door's associations.
* If you change a door from closed to open, the orb associations disappear. (That makes some sense, since you're putting in a new object, but it's a little counterintuitive.)
* It would be nice to have a key (e.g. Escape) for "stop placing this object" (e.g., snakes).
* I'd love to see more selectivity in the deletion process. For instance, if I have a room scattered with roaches and tar babies and decide the roaches need to be deleted and possibly replaced, the only thing I can do now is kill them off one by one, or else kill off everything in level 3. Perhaps holding down shift/control/whathaveyou could result in "delete only the currently selected item"?
* And while I'm here: can't cut-then-paste remember what you cut, for subsequent pastes, rather than remembering what region you cut from?

Here's an actual bug: If you delete a door, the associations remain behind on the square, resulting in very odd reactions if you connect a door between two such squares, you get a double-interaction, often resulting in a useless effect. It doesn't always work, but it is fairly consistent.

You'll probably want to post about this in the Bugs forum. It will get lost in the shuffle on FR.
