very nice ideas!

I would add the possibility to allow the level of transparency for both
the filling of polygons and the level of transparency of the selection
color. At this moment are by default both 100% solid and this is not
handy in may cases. A certain amount of transparency for polygon filling
helps a lot to quickly see if there are overlapped areas.

Making the selection color a bit transparent is necessary because it can
hide polygons that are below other ones, or even cause to select
polygons by mistake (using the "select features by rectangle" tool, in
opposition to the "select single feature" tool). 

cheers
