Some gschem functions do not work in the 'net' mode

[Vladimir Zhbanov]

This is found in the current git master head
(commit 9c7e5d343c69e8152c0f665fac87632396eb486d).

How to reproduce:
1) open gschem
2) add two resistors
3) hit 'n' to enable the 'net' mode
4) try to select 'Autonumber Text...' in the menu 'Attributes'
-> nothing happens

I also tried using shortcut ('tu') for this, it doesn't work
as well.
I tried to select other entries in the menu 'Attributes' and
they do not work in this mode.
Invoking the context menu using double-click often does not work
in this mode.

This may sound like a silly question, but what exactly should the expected behaviour be here?

The more I think about it, the less clear it becomes...

[Vladimir Zhbanov (vzhbanov)]

I think, if we are trying to invoke some function working with dialogs during
placing of a net in the net mode, the net segment (or the pair of segments if
in the manhattan mode) which is being created should be removed (as when you
open another schematic using 'fn', 'pn', etc), and the net mode should remain
waiting a user click.
