I would lobe that level of control and also a lasso selection tool. It may well happen as Xara seems to be running out of the other cool features to add :-)

This would also be cool, it could work like the selection arrow, pressing Alt to trigger it.
Another idea would be some kind of circular selection tool for points, you could adjust the radius and use it like a brush to select, everything inside being selected.

I have been practising with the shapebuilder and eraser tool for painting/drawing as well as the ability to set transparency from the shapebuilder/eraser tool its self as I mentioned earlier it would be very useful to be able to set fills, and to have both fractal fills and transparencies with a profile slider for the shape builder and different types of transparencies for the eraser would be very helpful.
This new Shape builder tool is wonderful. Thanks Xara I've been waiting a long time for this. It was the only drawing/painting thing I still missed from Photoshop, as it now allows broad (or fine) brush drawing.
One suggestion I have is that the size of the brush could be resized by hitting the + and - keys. I was going to suggest mouse wheel but of course this tool comes into its own with a pen.
