Steve, a nice addition would be an alt-a command to turn a part 90 deg. on its
y-axis, just like the "a" command in Ldraw.  Also, I've noticed that alt-x/y/z
lets me rotate a part, but alt-s (or alt-c) doesn't work for setting the
center of rotation.

And then ctl-a to rotate on z?  Along with the matching shift- combo
strokes, that would be very nice.

Didn't know about s and c for center setting, I think.

Aside from the deselection thing, the only real usability problem for me
happens while I'm trying to cut and paste lines.  If I'm trying to select a
line to cut when LDLite's "polling" takes place, sometimes I end up cutting
the wrong selection or get other unexpected results.  I don't know if it's
possible to dissable the polling say while the using is click-dragging or
maybe have a setting where polling is only allowed when I click a button or
something like that.

I can't really control the polling thing.  But I'll see if there's
something related going on (like writing the file out for LDLite to poll
against).
