Editing reference designators in spreadsheet view is not possible
Description
Current behavior: I can open the properties dialog on a component and change its parameters, including its RD. In the spreadsheet view, I can edit all other parameters but not the RD. This makes it a pain to rename multiple components, and in particular it results in there being no way whatsoever to change the RDs of multiple instances of hierarchical sheets. Expected: RD should be editable just like the value, footprint, and the other properties.
Steps to reproduce
- Annotate a schematic
- Open spreadsheet view
- Attempt to change a reference designator
