- The palette view looks fills up through an index of associative fills
that is rebuilt only when the scene's geometry epoch changes, instead
of scanning the drawing twice per frame. The gradient previews are
cached and rebuilt only when the gradient changes.
- New fills go to the layer of the filled object. A checkbox in the
palette menu ("Create fills on the current layer") restores the HATCH
behaviour and is saved in the config. Objects on locked layers are
skipped with a message.
- The palette is no longer part of the default dock layout; it is docked
below Properties the first time it is shown and keeps a place the user
chose. The original dock test is restored.
