Well, since you mention it... :-D
Maybe a little off-topic, but something else in the "nice" category would be if the measure distance tool worked in more areas like elevation views in the modeler, or any of the other modules, so you didn't have to go back to the modeler just to check the width of an opening or cantilever length, bay width, etc. Sometimes it's just handy to be able to quickly confirm a distance without getting out of what you're in.
