A dialog for File->Merge

[MikeJ]

MikeJ, that is what I supposed someone could be doing.
A smart guy would just Store the current selection (there is an option for that), merge the file and preserve or not the new selection. The previous selection would be easily recalled (also, there is an option for that).

But how does that affect the selections in the file to be merged in? When you say 'store the current selection' which file are you referring to? I still don't understand the 'traditional' workflow, so I'm a bit lost.

What I want avoid is in the future someone asking: "why that feature was removed? I loved it, I would like get it back" - we already have examples about this kind of situation.

I completely understand your reasons. But a 'smart guy' (who I am assuming Wings3D users to be) would recognize that an old, inefficient workflow should be given up in favor of a better one.
