Confirm Symmetrical Cloning

[Xyphos]

1. Build something big with symmetry, part count around 400 or so
2. enable symmetry mode and attempt to clone a part
3. instead, you misclick and end up cloning something else
4. the whole game is now frozen for 5 minutes while the editor attempts to clone all those parts
5. add another 5 minutes each time the mouse is moved as the editor attempts to adjust the cloned locations
6. terminate KSP out of frustration from the task manager, play a different game until you calm down.

Suggestion: have an option in the settings menu, before the editor begins to clone something over N parts, have a confirmation dialog appear to prevent the editor from needlessly locking up

This is something I would like to see. I play on various strengths of machine and all of them just lock up when I have symmetry on and clone the stack instead of a radially attached part.

I just move the mouse over to the parts list and go and make a coffee.

When I get back I drop those parts on the parts list to get rid of them and carry on.
