Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm working on a project where large parts of it are inside a vertical container. This happens every few minutes: I select an element, click into (seemingly) empty space to deselect it, go to drag another element (which shows arrows when I hover indicating it's going to be dragged), and drag the container instead

Describe the solution you'd like You already make it so dragging on empty space inside a container doesn't drag it, make dragging an element inside a container drags the element and not the container

Describe alternatives you've considered Or make it so clicking on empty space inside a container deselects

Additional context Please that has happened to me like nearly 100 times it's so small but it's annoying
