Any way to murder temp selections?

Sorry I messed up your workflow with the changes I made.

I have some suggestions though:

1. Change 'A' to use Aim intsead of Highlight Aim. Higlight Aim has its advantages though, especially if you already have a large selection and want to aim at a piece of geometry other than the center of the entire selection.
   
2. Turn on Conditional Deselection in the Preferences. This way when you press spacebar you will stay in the current selection mode. Pressing the spacebar twice puts you into multi-mode if Conditional Deselection is on.
   
3. The blank areas of the Menu Toolbar act as Deselect, and by clicking this part of the Menu Toolbar you can bring up the Create Menu.
