I think the original question was how to change one element from a collection
by another one, in this case, replace a string by another one, by 'editing' an
item, not to destructively modify a string (which would be a bad idea (tm)).
Inspect:
#('foo' 'bar') copy
Go to the Raw view, double-click 'foo', edit it and press Return to accept ->
no go.
Normally, we can in-place edit by double-clicking, but that seems to be broken
(well, you can edit but it won't accept the change).
I tried this in my working 40 image, and in a recent 50 image.
