I just spent an hour tracking down the setting in Block Edit that disabled Panels contextual links.
Seems pretty arbitrary that "Block edit links" and "Node edit links" are enabled by Block Edit, but "Panels edit links" are disabled by Block Edit.

Given the tenant of drupal contrib development that installing a new module should not change existing settings, seems to me that Block Edit should leave Panels edit links enabled when it's installed.

This patch accomplishes as much.

I agree that it's confusing that if you have Panels installed, suddenly you're admin links disappear. I've changed the default to be enabled, and added an update script which will set it to disabled (the current default) if it wasn't already set.

Fixed in 6.x-1.x:

A new release will be available shortly.
