OK, So following on from my previous issue. Had to make an 'invisible' panel to make an artificial margin butted next to my main Latte Dock.
Problem is: it disappeared! I can no longer click on this invisible panel to edit it. There is no longer aparrently "there" because it's no longer occupying space as a margin. Which was it's intended purpose (as a spacer).
Thing is: no it didn't really disappear fully. Because it is still being listed in the layout screen. Which is accessible from the Layouts editor.

See where the curor is pointing to in the screenshot attached here? The #14 Empty Panel, which is justified to the left of the screen.
So what is the issue here? Just delete and create a new one? Well yes. I can just remove it and create a brand new panel. However it might also be nice in more general sense. That for "inaccessible panels". Or ones that are occluded / hidden by other on screen decorations. To have here from that Page an "Edit" button. That then lets you click on a Panel (or Dock). And then engage it's "Edit Mode". So then can be edited (at all). Since there is no longer any way to actually right click on the panel.
So that is this feature request. Not terribly important or anything but it just seems like maybe could be a nice idea for better access from this page.
Again, many thanks for considering these feature improvement requests. Good day.
