This is a show stopper that prevents me from using MindMup. I want to place things where I want, connect them as I want, add a new root node at any time, prevent MindMup from automatically using some style that is irrelevant to what I want to do. In general, I want to be in control, not MindMup. As a result, I find MindMup completely unusable. There is no simple fix for this problem, it is a conflict of mindsets and ways of working so I do not expect any change. Moving single nodes works, for example, but selecting a group of nodes does not. Selecting groups of nodes based on the hierarchical document structure is insufficient. What you have is reasonable but everything should be overridable.
