POM areas should be visually highlighted when in edit mode and have contextual settings available

Type

Logged in admin should see a visual border around POM blocks on hover as explained in this prototype https://invis.io/TK613CMAR to aid content manager understanding of the POM, speed up suer experience and allow quick access to block specific settings affecting visual but non clickable items e.g. heavily stylised background text or metadata which affects visuals e.g. lat/long for map panels.

Actual behaviour

Not implemented. Settings are only available in abstract view. There is a hard separation between the two modes as noted in this issue https://github.com/getlackey/lackey-cms/issues/88 which should not be the case.

Notes

Prototype https://invis.io/TK613CMAR shows what I mean by contextual settings i.e. "if settings are available show them otherwise don't". Shared content should be identified as such by icon.

TBD as to some extend it interfere with principle of Lackey not affecting what you see, tricky one, require bit more specific preparation. Probably will keep as general roadmap guideline.
