 Replying to [ticket:2749 mwortmann]:
 > Wouldn't the simple (Settings > GRASS working environment > ) Change
 mapset dialog be a lot more useful in the Layer Manager toolbar? I'm not
 sure how many people are actually using the dialog, but I'm sure most use
 the commandline to do this simple change. I

 I use the dialog quite often when I don't remember the mapset names.

 >always thought typing 'g.mapset xyz' (plus maybe g.mapset -l) or going to
 the dialog, seems too much for such a simple thing. The simple dropdown
 without the Ok button would be quick and easy. Plus it could show the
 current mapset which is somewhat missing in the Layer Manager.

 I mostly agree but I am not sure where to put it, there is already a lot
 of things in the toolbar, so we would have to start a new row of toolbars?
 Maybe the data catalog tab would be an option?

 BTW, on Ubuntu, you can type Alt and then 'Change ...' and launch the
 dialog in this way, too.
