I was aware of two (first and third on your list), and already found it 
confusing to navigate between them. Also, there are numerous guides 
around. I guess my biggest challenge is asking the right question in 
just a few words...

Will do my best to document, improving manuals is a good thing. Though I 
didn't see any obvious info on how or where to do that. So this list 
will serve the purpose for now.

That's what I thought, too. But it doesn't. Clicking Edit will show 
something like Undo (region drag), even if my last action was deleting a 
region.
