Problems with editing sketches in Solidworks 2008

I have noticed in SolidWorks 2008 that there is an new feature that
is not what it is cracked up to be. SolidWorks 2008 now
allows you to edit a sketch and see how that will effect the
geometry of the part as you are changing the dimension.
However, there is considerable difficulty when a user tries
to edit a sketch that is based completely or partially on existing
features. It is difficult to add to an existing sketch when
your sketch plane is on a feature that you are not editing. I
don't know how to explain it very well. The only method that
I have found to over come it is to suppress the feature - then edit
the sketch. Please consider making the automatic rebuild
function an option in the dialog box. Is anyone else
complaining of this issue?
