Why do mo.ui.batch & mo.ui.array clone their contained elements?
batch/array both clone their elements. Why is that needed? What would happen if an UIElement with children wouldn't do that?

Someone will reply to you shortly. In the meantime, this might help:
I'm asking as this obviously breaks code where the
on_changed
callback has a reference to the element it needs to change -> oops the element was cloned and the parameter that was used to create it, is actually meaning less.
I guess the whole notation is meant to have an on_change
handler on the parent (batch/array) even if it makes more sense, design wise to do it at a row level (as the rows represent objects, so interacting with UIElements in one row will basically change the status of the object represented by the row)
