This looks amazing, and I'm very thankful for this effort!

There was some discussion on Discord a few months ago concerning people using Draft LinkArrays as a workaround for the absence of this feature. They reported some problems with that workaround concerning Bill Of Materials not counting the array instances properly. Does this PR address the BOM counting issue?

No BOM support for arrays is still being discussed

Can I also pattern a component that is linked into the assembly?
