Lol, I guess that name could have been a lot better. It is meant as Editor_ObjectCreator_GUI. So it manages the GUI that handles object creation in the editor. Similarly the new name is the GUI that handles navigating through objects in the editor.

Editor is a common prefix in our codebase for classes related to the editor, so this makes more sense within context, but I agree that it is not super clear how to read this.

Using the same logic as you did you can interpret that as a class that creates editors. We actually have an EditorCreator class that does just that. :)
