Missing checkbox "Preserve position" in STEditor

I'm not sure where to put this, as there doesn't seem to be a thread for bug reports about the editor, so I just created a new Topic. Feel free to merge with any of the existing bug report threads.

 

In the latest version of the Editor, the checkbox "Preserve position" in the Surface Edit -> Import dialog has disappeared and replaced by an "Open as read-only" checkbox. The Preserve Position checkbox is used to keep the global position of imported surface files, e.g. when importing a pre-made city into a map, and is quite useful in that regard. On the other hand, "Read only" doesn't make any sense when importing into another surface where you do have write access, and the checkbox doesn't seem to do anything. I therefore suspect this is an unintentional change, AKA a bug.

And just like that, the Preserve position checkbox is back again....

 

Really weird, I cannot really think of any reason why it disappeared previously, but for now my problem is solved.
