                        It could be VERY useful to add few simple tools to the edit panel. I know that some of them have been developed by using scripts, but internal tools would be more peforming and easy to use
  * mirror with respect XY, XZ, or YZ planes * mirror with respect plane orthogonal to the line from a given point and the center of object * rotate the object with respect an axis passing trough a given point * align centers of several object * join two faces of two objects if they are "equivalent" faces (same area, same perimeter)

                        From: Eadoin Welles It could be VERY useful to add few simple tools to the edit panel. I know that some of them have been developed by using scripts, but internal tools would be more peforming and easy to use

These are all things that would make building so much easier! I am not a math wiz, but I do have design sense and I love to build, but some of the things that you have to do to get a quality build, such as aligning faces and proper mirroring, are a massive pain in the posterior regions! All the silly little calculations required to do these things wouldn't be too difficult to put into a toolset, and they would do SL a huge favor, as it would increase the overall quality of builds in the long run. NO MORE LOPSIDED AIRCRAFT AND TEETERING WALLS! I second this wholeheartedly!

                        1) As I mentioned elsewhere, being able to stretch or position a hole in a prim independently from the overall shape of the prim.   2) To be able to make a true segment i.e. slice straight across a disc or sphere other than at diameter.
