This close to what I have been wanting.  I would like to be able to edit
any type of object.  Actually I can do it now (and do), but I have to
save the file, exit pcb, and use a text editor :-(.

My idea is to have a "properties" dialog for each type of object.
For example the Via one would show the X & Y location, size, drill size,
and have a check box for flags like hole and thermal.  You could change
these to fine tune the drill size etc.

I know some GTK, and may get around to writing this sometime.
