I'm not sure this would make sense or not to the majority, but it's something I've been wondering:

Why do Circles and Ellipses get their own areas in the tool palette?

For instance, when you click on Diagonal Polygon, you get some options on how to make the polygon.

What if the Circles and Ellipses were compressed into one (expandable option) tool each, and placed in the same floating palette as the polygons, slots, etc?

In the current floating tool palette, after Slots would be Ellipses then Circles, and if you click on Circles, all the options for creating a circle pop up below the Prompt Window.

This tool palette would be the 'closed line' palette.

Or, you could have a round palette, where Circles, Ellipses and Slots live.

None of that may make sense at all - just wanted to see what the rest of the users think of this hypothetical based on how they use these tools, and from the developers to see why it is organized in the manner that it is.
