Bug Description

Pcbnew, GAL mode (the Cut command does not exist in Legacy mode).
In Footprint editor, the Cut command (Ctrl+X or from the main menu Edit/Cut) has 2 problems.

- Select a block of items.
- Type Ctrl+X: > items are still shown on screen.
- Type a second Ctrl+X. It looks like items are deleted twice, and > Pcbnew crashes.

In board editor, a block selected and deleted by Ctrl+X is still displayed.
However typing a second Ctrl+X does not create a crash.

Jean-Pierre, when you invoke Cut/Copy commands, pcbnew asks you to select a reference point for the action, so the items are visible until you click. I have managed to reproduce the crash, obviously it should not happen and needs to be fixed.
