New description:

 I think that one of the major function in a gis software are the select
 tools.In general Qgis does a good job, but there are some things that can
 be changed to make it better (in my opinion).
 Here is a list of suggestion of things that I think would be ...:

 1. Some type of select tools are missing (see the python plug-in select
 plus) like Select all, Select none, Invert selection (that is available in
 the attribute manager), Select polygon, Select by freehand, The search
 query builder, etc.

 2. There should be a Select menu with all the select tools

 3. There should be a select toolbar with all the select tools

 4. The spatial query plug-in see patch #2634 could be integrated in the
 menu and toolbar

 5. A search manager where the searches with the search query builder  can
 be stored.

 I don't know if this enhancement fits better with the the milestone 2.0 or
 1.5 so be free to change it to 2.0 if you think so.
