Don't hide settings if the user clicks away

Check this thread out: Unsaved changes are lost when move to another item - #20 by juannm

There are options there to do much the same (i.e. open a new tab) - but persisting the popout is not a native function for extensions. It would require some potentially hacky code to achieve, and would also require an explicit close action to dismiss the popup.

In the end, I believe we want to accomplish a few things:

  1. Make items easier to edit when making lots of changes and/or creating new items
  2. Prevent any unsaved data from disappearing (something like drafts)
  3. Follow standard development protocols to prevent unintended bugs/issues in the future.

That’s why I closed the other thread - and I would much prefer all the votes and conversations to take place in the thread I mentioned above.
