Describe the issue you are experiencing

When I have a YAML dashboard, and click on the dashboard menu (vertical dots top right), I have the choice "Edit Dashboard". However, when clicking on it, I only get a dialog "The edit UI is not available when in YAML mode."

Describe the behavior you expected

I would expect no menu choice "Edit Dashboard", or it to be disabled. But preferrably I would expect "Edit Dashboard" to open the raw configuration (YAML) editor. Better still, open a VSCode browser tab with the dashboard YAML.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Open a YAML dashboard
  2. Click on the top right menu dots
  3. Select "Edit Dashboard"

It is a pity that HA seems to value flashy innovations (often for a limited group of users) over basic human interface issues.
