 It would be very useful to have a topology-aware simplify tool.
 A topology aware tool would simplify only EDGES of the topology rather
 than full geometries. This would prevent those funny effects on
 crossborder lines
 being simplified in a different way.

 I saw the topology support is already in somehow, as the node tool is able
 to edit
 multiple edges at once when moving a node.

 Another alternative would be allowing for simplify tool to specify first
 and last point
 manually (more work for the user but still less than clean up after
 feature-level simplification)
