It would be really nice if any of the instances could be picked by the
picker. Then pushing that picked one to library-cache and updating the
schematic from the cache just updated. Wouldn't that solve the whole
case cleanly? Nag dialogs are the usability horror IMO, they break the
workflow and need attention to clear. Just a log messge would be
preferred by me.

Btw, it's nice to see Dick making KiCad better again. Thanks (to Wayne
as well)!
