In my limited testing, it seems to work very well. However, I do have one suggestion which is of course open to feedback from the group.
Often when I want to merge a couple of different scenes the merge dumps all of the new elements on top of what I am already working on. This would be okay if the newly-merged elements would stay selected because I could then easily move them out of the way of what I was already working on. As the current merge and this new merge functionality exists, I have to stop and select each and every element that was just merged into my scene in order to get it out of my way. This would of course necessitate having to deselect all in my current scene before actually merging the new elements in, which could be included in the merge functionality. So, once the file to be merged was selected and all of the various checkboxes were checked or unchecked, the first step of the merge function would be to do a deselect all on your current scene.
But that is probably just a derivative of the way I use Wings3D and may not work for other people's workflow.
What do you think?
