Replace the horizontal nav-tabs + per-card variant button layout with a three-column grid: category rail with nested flavor list on the left, component grid in the middle, live preview pane with explicit "Insert into editor" button on the right. Add componentcount + Mebis colour tokens; teach utils::button_icon_css the new .elements-comp-icon selector so existing component icons render under the new markup.
Add 15px clickable dot indicators on each component card that toggle variants on click, plus a context-sensitive variant strip below the component grid that appears on dot hover and shows clickable chips with each variant's display name. Card click selects the component for the Insert button; clicks on dots do not change the selection. Strip stays visible while hovering it, hides 150ms after the cursor leaves both the dots and the strip.
Double-clicking a component card selects it and triggers Insert immediately, bypassing the explicit Insert button. Dots are excluded so quick double-toggling of a variant cannot accidentally insert.
Variant toggles previously refreshed the live preview only when the toggled component was the currently selected one. With the hover-driven strip, users routinely toggle on a component they're hovering over without selecting it first. Track the component currently rendered in the preview pane (set by showPreviewFor) and refresh it whenever its variants change, regardless of selection state.

Implemented some UX improvements because modal was too tiny (hehe) for the amount of data:
The challenge was to make the user understand immediately the structure and configurability of flavors with their variants by explicit description. Prevent accidential insertion of element by single click (changed to double click);
Concrete changes:
