Convenience features for construction

Hi everyone,

Being home for a week and not having my desktop (it's in the caravan down south), was playing on a laptop with some layout variations. 
Two things came up, which always were a bit of an annoyance to me over the years:

1. It would be really nice to be able to apply ramp modifications to group of splines (tracks). One has to release the group to do that and then group again.
2. When using terrain features it would be nice if each function (up, down, smooth etc.) could remember the settings individually. Building terrain requires a lot of switching between the functions and usually the settings for size and strength, and maybe even form of brush is different. Would be great that settings remain for each function separately.

Oops, sorry just realised that I wrote in English, wasn't intentional.
I am back next week on my desktop and will give XLST a go, unless somebody else has already done the formatting of Neo's command list. Still kinda embarrassed about  the plunder with the AI.  
Regards
