"To select the duped edges (*in a 100% guaranteed manner Smile) select the adjacent faces on the relevant side that sliding will take place, convert to edge selection, deselect unwanted edges ... and use slide."
Good tip. Another way is to stay in edge selection mode, and since an extrude/normal op keeps the original edge/loop selected, hit Alt-G(extend ring selection) then a user hotkey for deselect previous.
(btw, Crease is nice, indeed! even less clean up )
Also, Like Justanother1, to presever UVs as much as possible, I favor adding edge loops, but then I'd really like that when the user slides them in relative mode the uv would be auto-updated too. I mean, since sliding in Relative mode works in percentage I don't really see a reason why Wings3D couldn't easily have this added UV feature too. But then I'm not a coder.
