Ability to simply re-assign component number already assigned

So this is simple. I would love to be able to name, say a resistor from R10 to R1. R1 would then become R10, and all handled automatically. At the moment I have to rename all resistors involved to a high number before re-assigning which is a pain when dealing with a large circuit.

  I agree, this restriction has always been a difficulty.

  If R10, I make it R100 or R21 becomes R210 so I can rename something else and then go back around again - uselessly time consuming.

  I assume they force this to avoid errors, especially with noobs, but live error checking could resolve this without inhibiting the function (highlight components with the same refdes or something).
