Replace From Block Diagram

[carls__]

When right-clicking on a control or indicator from the block diagram, there is no replace option:

Instead, you need to go to the front panel and then replace from there.  It'd be useful if you could replace directly from the block diagram.

(This is particularly useful in situations where controls/indicators are hidden on a GUI)

Also, Quick Drop, CTRL+P should replace the control from the diagram.

My main pain point with not having replace on the block diagram is when working with GUIs where the controls aren't visible on the front panel.  This idea from years ago would somewhat negate the need for this:

I feel an "already implemented in NXG" coming...

By the force of the community we might be able to deliver this quicker than the LabVIEW developer team :D.
