Class PropertiesPanel
Shows and edits the properties of an EditorSession's selected element. Every edit becomes an undoable markup change.

Remarks
The panel follows SelectionChanged, and refreshes its values whenever the selected element's document changes, whether from this panel, a drag in the editor frame, an undo or new text. It does no per-frame work.
It listens to the session only while it's on a canvas, so a panel that was removed doesn't keep reacting to edits (or stay reachable from the session). Adding it back catches up with the current selection.
Place it anywhere: in an EditorOverlay dock, an EditorWorkspace, or your own debug page.

Methods
OnAttached()
Raises the Attached event.
protected override void OnAttached()Remarks
Propagates Canvas to every element in GetVisualChildren() - this is what makes attaching a whole pre-built subtree (the common pattern: build children, then attach the root once via Add(UIElement)) reach every descendant, not just the immediate root. Each child's own Canvas setter recurses into its children the same way, so this walks the full subtree regardless of depth. Container-specific child-add paths (e.g. OnChildAdded(object?, GenericEventArgs<UIElement>)) still assign Canvas directly for children added after the parent is already attached - this cascade is what covers everything built beforehand.
OnDetached()
Raises the Detached event.
protected override void OnDetached()Remarks
Propagates null to every element in GetVisualChildren(), mirroring OnAttached() - see its remarks.
