Bug while editing vessel prior to launch, in mission mode

[evilwombat]

I'm trying to pay the very first stock mission. I've built the first two craft and accomplished their goals successfully. Now I've built the third craft and it's sitting on the launch pad, but I realized I wanted to change something in the craft's design. How can I do this?

From the launch pad, my only options are "Recover Vessel" and "Space Center". Clicking either of them takes me back to the KSC, but all facilities are "locked" and I have no choice but to exit the game to the main menu. I can use the "Pause" menu to revert the mission to the last vessel spawn point, but this does not allow me to bring the vessel back into the editor.

It looks like my only option is to restart the whole mission from the beginning, which seems rather silly... What's the deal?

... selecting "Restart Mission" at this point causes a never-ending Loading screen and the only option is to kill the application.

BTW, 1.4.1, Linux x86_64.

This seems to happen when we recover vessels in missions. Not the third launch, but the first or second. The game wants you to click something else instead, image here:

SQUAD devs have stated they're working on this.
