Plus a number of other things I can't imagine yet. Think of it as the options that show up for desktop widgets for say KDE4 or Mac's dashboard applets. And it would be nice if these popped up at the side of the selection where the mouse currently is located so that the maximum distance is always size/2. > </brainstorm> There would have to be a way to free the area occupied by such options, either by moving it to the other side or by disabling it, because there are some scenarios where you might need to do something with that area. Maybe one modifier key that's freed by that additional user interface could be used to switch it off (either while being pressed or to toggle the state)? A lot of design details wait here. As always I'm looking forward for what you invent next, Peter :) Daniel
