Hi Oliver,

I tested your patch, but I have found a few serious issues when editing a 
footprint with keepout
zone on a board:

- the rotation does not work (incorrect position of the keepout after rotation)
- Undoing/redoing a move, rotation... is fully broken and creates multiple 
copies of the keepout,
and I had a crash after playing with undo/redo.

Thanks.
