I love the drawing feature, but there's something about it that's driving me crazy ... it  seems to have the wrong object focus much of the time.

There are so many examples,  but allow me to define a simple one:

You copy a text box, paste it elsewhere, and then start clicking the 'Angle' arrows to change the angle.  Except nothing is happening.  You keep clicking it with nothing happening, until you realize that the box is actual changing the angle back on the object you copied FROM.

I'm often typing text in the wrong box, or manipulating the wrong drawing element because of this.  I don't know if the app is goofed up, or if the way I work is goofed up.  Maybe both.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Yes. If you paste a drawing object, it puts the new object into the map at your pointer's location, and draws it as if it was selceted and active, yet in realty the copy source object is still active and all changes that you apply aren't put to the newly created clone, but to the original. 

And when you move a drawing, mind your center! You may click onto the upper left third, but you are moving the center, and the object often snaps to the wrong location, making small adjustments to the location into an exercise in patience
