Addition: unit id resets only if component has "All units are not interchangeable" unchecked.

This bug also exists for selecting multiple components as a Block and then using the "Copy Block"-command. I can confirm Sergeys addition that this bug is worked around by checking "All units are not interchangeable" for the component.

This is by design. If the units are interchangeable, then they're interchangeable. (We'll renumber them during annotation too.)

If you don't want that, mark them as not interchangeable. It's not a work-around; it's what that setting is for.
