Hi, I'd like to request or suggest that the prim edit tools include the ability to move prims incrementally using the arrow keys or whatever keys needed. It is quite difficult to move a prim by just a tiny amount using the mouse. I would like to see a feature that is something like what Adobe Photoshop has when moving a selection. You can move your selection with the mouse or you can tap on the arrow keys to move it by small increments. I think something like this would greatly improve building and help get rid of problems with seams.

Though it's not what you're asking for, I've found that a mouse wheel is a very nice thing to have when the editor window is open. If the mouse pointer is over a numeric field, wheel up/down will change the value by .01..
