Array converted to text in IDE...

In LC9 (and probably earlier) , has anyone else been looking at custom
properties of an object in the IDE and accidentally converted an Array
to text without any warning or even realizing it had happened until
their application stopped working correctly?

I searched the Quality Center to see if there was any enhancement
request to either:

A) Allow proper editing of array data in the property inspector - if an
array can be viewed and edited in the runtime debugger, why not the
property inspector?

OR

B) Present some warning that says "You are about to convert this array
to text. Are you sure?"

Obviously A is the preferred choice.
