When selecting or hovering over elements in the email layout tool, there’s a great deal of shifting and reflowing of the UI and the items in it. It’s pretty big distraction and even a friction point to have change where my eye is focused and where my mouse is going when so much shifts in a hover state much less when selecting elements to make changes to.
