Not a wishlist; just an experiment for some s-expr support. But need some experience with it to see if it'll be any good. There are other choices beyond your click^N wish. For instance the selection size can grow as a function of how long you keep a mouse button pressed. Or you can make it a function of how far you drag -- the UPS debugger makes scrolling speed a function of drag distance. Very nice! But until you implement it and try it out, you won't know if it is any good or how it will interact with other UI features. Or if there is a better idea.
