Right now, loading levels causes the entire editor to freeze up while objects are loaded and placed. I think it would be better to run all the importing on a separate thread, then show some sort of loading bar showing the state of what's being loaded.

This is really just for myself; a place to note my ideas/plans.

• Better UI controls. Undo, Redo, select area, cut, copy, paste... Etc.
• A better cursor! Having to waltz around levels with WASD + RF is annoying.
• Implement FEZSKY files. This may be complicated, as they're a bunch of textures just layered on top of each other.
• List art objects in palette. We know where they are, and what they look like. How do we put them in the palette?
• List NPCs in the palette. Same as above.
• Find a way to render and change water height in levels.
• Implement background planes!
• Investigate volumes and scripts

Some triles have a different default orientation, as defined in .fezts files. This can be seen in tree.fezts for the "VINES" and "Locked Door" triles. We'll have to take those orientations into account when placing them into the scene for the first time.
