feature: permit to add objects into a instanced component

[henri9813]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Hello,

I try to build a component called: Card.

This card has a header, and a CONTENT ( which is a workspace in flex mode or grid, I tried both ).

When I instantiate the component, I'm not able to add items ( components, text, or shapes ) into the CONTENT workspace.

The only solution is to detach the component, but If I do this, I lose the advantage to use a component and the maintenance will be insane.

I tried this: https://community.penpot.app/t/is-it-possible-to-have-container-components/5406 but it doesn't works as expected.

Describe the solution you'd like.

I would like to be able to add items inside the container of my component.

Describe alternatives you've considered.

No alternative.

Sometimes, when I drag and drop items, it's included in a component, but I don't know why because I don't put it in the component.

After this, I can't delete anymore my items ( I'm obligated to do undo )...
