I kind of like the new v2012 array command, as it is easy to change some of the basic parameters. It would be really nice though if the already created array could be edited in place, like you can do with a block.
E.g. 4 blocks are being used to create an array. For whatever reason, one of these blocks within the array should be replaced by another one. Now I have to explode the array, delete all the obsolete items, replace the block that should be replaced and create the array again.

In their haste to help us sometimes the programmers at AutoDesk don't look that far down the road to envision where things can go wrong.  I assume that is because they are programmers and not people like you and me who actually have to produce drawings with the software day in and day out.
