More tests. Results...
Genesis 1 also has the same "highlight imported Box in Host List, Hair menu auto-expand for no reason issue".
Again, if continue session and ignore hair menu, will carry out sim session per normal.
However, I have also found, IF import 3rd object (box/other scene items) as Collision Actor, and with Hair Menu still auto-expanded, the issue can be worked arouond IF we go up to Host List, RE-select the Cloth Actor, then NO ERROR POPUP claiming "must be cloth object". Hair menu REMAINS opened/expanded btw, but the Vertices Tools selection grouping and the rest of the sim session can continue as per normal. Cloth actor will collide with BOTH collision actors.
It's good that the 'Hair Menu Auto-expand at 2nd Collision Actor Import" is not a big bug and can be bypassed. In any case, this still has to be fixed. Because
Highlighting a 3rd object in the Host List should not auto-expand Hair menu.
The Hair menu should not remained opened in a multiple Collision actors session for no reason.
So far, it seems most of the "bugs" I've come across can easily be resolved by making VWD auto-selecting (or auto-REselecting) the Cloth or Hair object in the Host List, when users click on Vertices Tools at any point of the session.
