Well, I actually *never* select an object I just hover it and press the
key :P However I agree that shift-selection is quite useful to nudge
things around and make space.

I confirm that the cursor handling for measurement etc is now finished
in GAL. Even found the 'always show cursor' option, which I somehome
missed at first.

Also, armed with the knowledge of *how* the anchor point is chosen, when
the cursor is shown it correctly warps to the anchor.

Kudos for the combination color picker too.

It seems to me that most of the features (that I use, at least) from legacy are fine on GAL.

Keep on the good work
